strong. An excellent white usually found in the winning classes in 
all large shows. A Brand Division ^1.50 
9.0 BARONESS SCHROEDER (Kelway) 
This is considered one of the finest white Peonies grown. When 
the last symposium was taken, this variety received a rating of 9.0 
after 79 people had voted. When the buds first open, they are a 
delicate blush, but the flower soon fades to a milky white. This is 
a variety that should be found in every collection. It comes into 
bloom late, after most of the white Peonies are gone. 
A Brand Division ^1.00

A globular flower with white guard petals, faintly tinted yellow and 
sometimes flecked crimson on the back. The center white petals

general color effect is soft yellow. Late midseason.

BISHOP BURKE (Vories) 
A pleasing lhade of rosy crimson with an effective silver sheen 
throughout. '‘Unlike any other red we grow. The flower is of me' 
dium size, perfect rose form. Plant medium tall with strong stems

room. A Brand Division ^2.00 
8.4 CHESTINE GOWDY (Brand) 
A striking variegated cone'shaped pink. The broad outer petals 
are silvery pink. These enclose a zone of fine, irregularly shaped 
closely set petals, of deep rich cream, which in turn surround a 
prominent cone of broad pink petals, splashed and tipped with 
crimson. This is a late variety with delicate fragrance. 
A Brand Division ^1.00 
8.7 CLAIRE DUBOIS (Crousse) 
A late flower of immense globular form, with long incurved petals 
of a uniform shade of clear violet'rose, tipped silvery white. It has 
that same wonderful attractiveness possessed by Mons. Jules Elie.

Mons. Jules Elie is early. A Brand Division ^1.00 
COMMANDER (A. M. Brand) 
A true self solferino'red. An extra large, high built compact flower. 
A cone'shaped rose type variety. Although late, it blooms con' 
sistently, which cannot be said of most late varieties. After every 
other red is gone you can still go out and bring in excellent flow' 
ers of this variety. A real acquisition to our reds. 
A Brand Division ^3.00

A soft Tyrian rose without stamens. The flowers are very large with 
prominent guard petals surrounding a great ball of closely packed 
petals of the same shade. An upright growing plant with very 
strong stems that hold their large blooms erect. This is an excel' 
lent garden variety and also a good show flower. 
A Brand Division $1.50

ings on its center petals. The flower has a delightful rose fragrance

DIRECTEUR URSAT (Doriat) 
A very early soft light pink that opens in loose bomb or crown 
type, with a pleasing touch of light yellow petals in the collar. 
If seen at the right stage the flower is pleasing but like many varie' 
ties becomes ragged with age. A Brand Division $5.00 
7.6 EDULIS SUPERBA (Lemon) 
This is the first good early deep pink. It sometimes opens for 
Decoration Day with us in Minnesota. The flowers are large, borne 
profusely on tall, strong stems. A loose, crown type flower, of a 
beautiful deep pink. One of the greatest of all cut flowers in its 
color and season. This flower deserves a much higher rating and 
should be planted because of its earliness and general good qualities. 
A Brand Division $1.00 
9.0 ELLA CHRISTIANSEN (A. M. Brand) 
Although not so deep a pink as Blanche King, Ella Christiansen 
is so distinct from the delicate pinks in coloring as to be a real 
acquisition. The flower is exceedingly large, both on the plant in 
the field and when handled as a cut flower. Petals are long, narrow, 
and heavily serrated on the edges. The flower first opens cup' 
shaped, then flat. Irresistibly appealing—Ella Christiansen receives 
the unbounded praise of every visitor. We like it better every year. 
A Brand Division $3.00 
ELLEN FOSTER (A. M. Brand) 
Flesh pink. A medium tall growing variety with good plant habits 
and clean foliage. Rose type blooms of good size, large broad deep 
petals of almost uniform light flesh'pink flushed delicate lavender.

last season as the best flower in our show room.

EVANGELINE NEWHALL (A. M. Brand) 
A very late large light pink. The petals are very long and the 
edges are both scalloped and rufiled. The flower has variations of 
deeper pink running throughout the petals. The variety is semi' 
rose in type. This is a comparatively new variety that we intrO' 
duced in 1936. We consider it a very fine Peony. 
A Brand Division $10.00 
8.9 EUNICE SHAYLOR (Sass) 
A midseason semi'double variety; beautiful on matured plants. 
Outer petals are a light pink. Center petals are a flesh'white with 
a circle of golden stamens around the center tuft. A good show 
flower. A Brand Division $2.00 
7.7 FANNY CROSBY (Brand) 
An early yellow Peony with pink guard petals that is growing in 
favor more each year as it becomes better known. The plant is 
strong, thrifty, and very floriferous. The side buds come into 
bloom with the main flower and if left on the plant they make a 
wonderful showing. A Brand Division $1.50
