NICKSHAYLOR (Shaylor Or Allison) 
In our estimation one of the very best of the newer Peonies. A 
beautiful rounded cup'shaped bloom with tremendously large, nicely 
rounded petals that overlap one another as the petals of a rose. The 
color is a deep pure flesh-pink with markings of a deeper, richer 
pink. We consider Nick Shaylor a top-notch variety.

9.0 NINA SECOR (Seeor) 
An absolutely pure white of true rose-type. A few of the central 
petals show a fine crimson edge. The flower is built high with a 
cupped rosebud center and resembles Kelway’s Glorious. The 
flowers are medium to large. The plant is tall, graceful, with light 
green foliage. The plant needs careful disbudding to bring the 
blooms to exhibition size. Midseason. A Brand Division $1.00 
8.8 NYMPHAEA (Thurlow) 
Large flat flowers with wide, silky petals of delicate creamy white, 
notched at tips, edges somewhat rolled; yellow stamens in center 
reflect a golden light throughout. Fragrant. Early midseason. 
Remindful of a Waterlily only much larger and more beautiful 
than any Waterlily we have ever seen. Very refined; a real addi¬ 
tion to our growing list of good Peonies. More semi-double than 
rose type. A Brand Division $1.00 
8.6 PRIMEVERE (Lemoh.) 
One of the best of the yellow varieties. The guard petals are a 
creamy white, enclosing a central ball of sulphur-yellow. The 
flower is medium large, bomb type, and very fragrant. It comes 
into bloom midseason. If the flower is cut in the bud and de¬ 
veloped inside, you get the true color. A Brand Division $1.50 
8.7 REINE HORTENSE (Catotl 
A uniform hydrangea-pink, with guard and center petals marked 
crimson. This is a variety that gives universal satisfaction and is 
both a show and garden variety. The plant is tall with long stiff 
stems. The flowers are slightly fragrant. A midseason variety.

REV. H. TRAGITT (A. M. Brand) 
White. Very large, of true rose type. Great blooms of the most 
perfect form resemble large balls of snow. The dwarf plants with 
strong stems hold the great white blooms erect. Very sturdy, even 
rowth. Planted in rows, they present a remarkable sight when in 
loom. So profuse, the blooms cover the whole plant with a solid 
mass of white. Usually pure white, yet occasionally a faint trace of 
red shows on an inner petal. Globular in form; great broad, snow- 
white petals of great substance. This variety resembles Le Cygne 
but it is late while Le Cygne is early. Unusually fragrant.

ODILE (Donat) 
A fine, tall, late light pink that will attract your attention either in 
the field or the show room. It has much the same color as Touran- 
gelle but the flower has more substance and the plant is more 
thrifty. A Brand Division $7.50 
OFFICINALIS RUBRA 
“Grandmother’s Piney.” This bright old-fashioned red should be 
in every garden because of its early blooming. As a rule we can 
always cut a few flowers for our Decoration Day trade. It comes 
into bloom just after Tenuifolia Flora Plena. It has a rich spicy 
fragrance. A Brand Division $1.00 
8.8 RICHARD CARVEL (Brand) 
An early crimson parallel to the pink Mons. Jules Elie. With its 
extra early blooming qualities, large size, and splendid habits, this 
variety is already a well-established favorite. A single plant on the 
lawn is attractive and delightful, beautiful and lasting. A valuable 
cut flower. The odor is pleasant and pronounced, a very rare 
quality in the reds. A Brand Division $1.00 
9.0 ROSA BONHEUR (Dessert) 
Very large, rose type. Delicate pink, with guard petals slightly 
flecked crimson. The plant is medium tall, erect, with strong stems. 
A late midseason variety that is always admired.

9.2 PHILIPPE RIVOIRE (Riviere) 
A very bright rich crimson coming into bloom late midseason. 
The beautiful form of this flower and its uniform soft rich color 
make it a flower loved by all who see it. This is a fine show flower 
and is absolutely void of stamens. It has a pleasing fragrance and 
is the highest rated of any red Peony. A Brand Division $3.00

A very late pale old-rose-pink, darkening toward the center. The 
plant is very tall with strong stems and good light green foliage.

petals. A desirable late variety that always opens well. 
A Brand Division $1.50 
8.8 PHYLLIS KELWAY (Kelway) 
A very large, loosely built rose-pink, coming into bloom mid- 
season. The outer petals are very large and broad. The center 
petals are intermingled with bright golden stamens. This is a 
flower that is liked by all who see it. This fine pink and Susan 
White make a fine combination, as they are the same type but 
differ in color. A Brand Division $1.50 
PRESIDENT COOLIDGE (A. M. Brand) 
Too new to be rated. A fine late pink, remarkable both as a show 
flower and landscape variety. The flowers are large and of a rather 
uniform lavender-pink. The blooms are carried well above the 
foliage on strong stiff stems. The prominent guard petals stand 
out from the rest of the flower. A Brand Division $3.00 
9.3 PRESIDENT WILSON 
A very large, late, bright rose-pink, fading to a lighter pink. The 
flower has a rich, spicy fragrance. The plant is of medium height, 
strong stems, good foliage. Awarded Certificate of Honorable 
Mention at London, Ontario, Show. A Brand Division $1.50

flowers erect. A Brand Division $1.50

ROBERT E. LEE (A. M. Brand) 
This pure snow-white was named for the great southern soldier 
and scholar. The flower is of medium size and fine form. A few 
roots have been sold and we believe this flower will appear in the 
winning classes at the coming Peony shows. A Brand Division $10.00 
ROSAMOND GRANT (A. M. Brand) 
This lovely pink seedling was named in 1935 but we have seldom 
been able to list it in our catalog. We have a few excellent roots 
to offer this fall. It is a late midseason deep salmon-pink. The 
plant is thrifty and blooms profusely. A Brand Division $5.00 
ROY GODDARD (A. M. Brand) 
A real Brand Peony right down to date. Three years ago, we 
selected from our seedlings under trial a flower of exceptional merit 
and named it for Roy Goddard, Dean of the Junior High School 
of Rochester, Minnesota. This is a large flower of true rose type 
with many long, narrow petals radiating out into a great open 
flower after the type of Martha Bulloch. A creamy pink with color 
becoming very rich towards the center. A Brand Division $10.00 
RUTH ELIZABETH (A. M. Brand) 
An intensely rich red of true rose form with broad roselike petals set 
up in perfect arrangement. Comes into bloom late in the Peony 
season. Always opens well. This Peony was named for Ruth 
Brand who books our orders absolutely correct and we think we 
have named a perfect red for her. A Brand Division $10.00 
9.0 SARAH BERNHARDT ( Lemoine) 
Another fine pink that always prevails in the show room. From 
our chart you will note it appeared every year in the large class. 
The color is a true apple-blossom-pink with each petal silver tipped. 
It is a late midseason variety with an agreeable fragrance. 
A Brand Division $1.00

late variety with a delightful rose fragrance.
