9.0 MILTON HILL (Richardson) 
A beautiful flower of a delicate shade of salmompink, resembling 
Walter Faxon. It comes into flower late in the season and when 
seen in the show room in first class form, this variety is hard to 
beat in its color. It received a rating of 9.0 with 63 voting. One 
of the finest of all Peonies. A Brand Division $1.00 
At the National Show, 1940, Milton Hill was one of the outstanding 
varieties. It appeared in most of the prize-winning classes, as it was 
an exceptionally fine year for this fine variety.

MME. DE VERNEVILLE (Crousse) 
We feel this variety is much under-rated. Flower large, very full, 
bomb type. Guard petals sulphur-white; center petals rose-white 
with carmine touches; good substance. Long, strong stems; ideal cut 
flower. Pleasing fragrance. Comes into bloom after Festiva Maxima, 
and we regard it far superior in beauty. A Brand Division $1.00

A rare, beautiful white, coming into bloom late in the season. The

erect stems. A most satisfactory garden flower and a wonderful 
show flower. A Brand Division $1.00

One of the finest of all light pink Peonies. The flowers are very 
large, well formed, and of a delicate flesh-pink gradually fading to 
white. This variety does well in the garden and is always among the 
prize winners at the great shows. A Brand Division $1.50 
9.3 MONS. JULES ELIE (Crousse) 
An immense self-colored flesh-pink, shading a trifle deeper toward 
the base of petals. Great prominent broad guard petals enclose an 
immense ball of incurved petals of the same color, all covered with 
an intense silvery sheen. It looks more like a huge Chrysanthemum 
than a Peony. The plant is medium tall with strong stems. An 
early bloomer with pleasing fragrance. A Brand Division $1.00

' . -(A. M. brand) 
/V very large midseason, semi'rose, red. The perfect arrangement 
of the large petals gives this flower exquisite form, ^^e named this 
Peony for Mrs. Gowen of Excelsior, ^Minnesota, for we believe no 
one is a better judge of a good Peony than she. She selected this 
variety some years ago from our seed bed as a really fine Peony 
and consequently it bears her name. A Brand Division #7.50 
MRS BRYCE FONTAINE < A . M Brand) 
A midseason, rich dark crimson. It is darker than Longfellow but 
not the color of Mons. Martin Cahuzac. It is a flower of wonderful 
substance and holds up well after being cut and for this reason it 
makes a fine garden and also show flower. Although this variety 
is listed as new and few roots have been sold we have watched it 
year after year for over 16 years and we are willing to place it 
among the very best reds. A Brand Division $5.00 
MRS DE A N E PUNK (A. M. Brand) 
A Walter-raxon-pink coming into bloom early midseason. The 
flower resembles Phyllis Kelway and is one of the finest of all 
Peonies for use in decorative work in making up large baskets or 
vases of flowers. A distinct band of golden stamens lights up the 
entire flower and these stamens enclose a rosebud, cup-shaped cen¬ 
ter or large incurving petals. Magnificent in the show room.

MRS. EDWARD HARDING (Shaylor) 
A large midseason white, illumined by many golden stamens hidden
