Double Varieties 
ALLURE (Neeley) 
The blooms of this peony are white with a yellow 
sheen at their centers and loosely built so that they 
are well carried on the stems for landscape use. It 
is not the best of the Neeley varieties but it should 
be in a representative collection of his introductions.

ANNA SASS (Sass) 
Late midseason. Very beautiful delicate light pink 
with an orchid overtone. Profuse bloomer on tall 
strong stems. It is an excellent garden and land¬ 
scape variety.

APOLLO 
This double, pink variety which fades to white, has 
splendid stems but it has grown only two seasons in 
my garden and I will probably be better able to give 
my opinion on its value next season.

ANNE NIELSON (Good & Reese) 
A double peony of a beautiful light shade of pink. 
It grows erect and blooms in early midseason and 
has stems sufficiently strong to hold up its large 
flowers. Next to Judge Snook it is the best seller of 
the Good and Resse varieties in my garden.

AUGUSTE DESSERT (Dessert)—8.7 
I saw this variety the first time I visited Mr. Dessert 
in his own garden in France. It has splendid stems 
and loose flowers of shades of red, rose, and pink. 
It is a perfect landscape variety not only on account 
of its stems and color but also because the loose 
petals allow rain drops to pass between them to the 
ground. Mr. Dessert told me that even though his 
Therese had a higher rating, yet he admired this 
variety more than any other.

BLANCHE KING (Brand) 
A rich pink, full double peony which holds its color 
in all kinds of weather. Blooms late in the season. 
At the National Peony Show in Syracuse this season 
a bloom of it was selected as the best flower and 
placed in the Court of Honor.

No large divisions this season. 
CAPTAIN KIDD (Auten) 
Dark red semi-double, rich with purple. Large 
blooms on tall stems. Color holds except in extreme 
heat. This variety is apparently growing in popu¬ 
larity.
