PAR IBAU LT, MINN. 
BRAND PEONY FARMS 
At the National Show this summer every Japanese variety we list, 
with the exception of Altar Candles, Aureolin and Taiho, were in 
classes winning first, second and third prices. These three varieties are 
good, but for some reason were not shown. 
AKASHIGATA (Japan) 
Bright rose guard petals surround a heavy center of filamental 
petals of bright pink bordered with gold. 
A Brand Division #1.00 
8.5 ALMA (Shaylor) 
A midseason light pink Japanese variety with bright yellow petal' 
oids, tipped gold. Center carpels greenish yellow tipped pink. 
A Brand Division #1.00 
8.0 ALTAR CANDLES (Pleas) 
A Japanese variety with flesh'pink guard petals surrounding a cen- 
ter of narrow petaloids tipped crimson. Floriferous and depend' 
able. A Brand Division #1.00 
Special 
ON SINGLE AND 
JAPANESE VARIETIES 
The variety Prairie Afire is the only Japanese Peony that we have 
in storage in quantity and for this reason we cannot make a special 
offer. However, we will give a Prairie Afire free with every order 
calling for single and Japanese Peonies that amounts to $10,00, pro' 
viding you wish it. 
9.2 AMA-NO-SODE (Japan) 
Probably the finest pink Japanese variety. Large, cup-shaped petals 
enclose a center of half-transformed staminodes, edged gold and 
faced pink. Carpels light green, tipped pink. 
A Brand Division #5.00 
8.9 AUREOLIN (Shaylor) 
A single row of broad guard petals surrounds a center of fully 
transformed petaloids of deep sulphur-yellow. This variety holds 
its color well in the sun and if you are looking for a good yellow 
Japanese Peony you will be pleased with Aureolin. 
A Brand Division #2.00 
9.2 CHARM (Franklin) 
This is a very dark maroon Japanese variety. We like it better 
than Fuyajo as it is richer in color and larger in size. Holds up 
well as a cut flower. It resembles Fuyajo and comes into bloom 
midseason. A Brand Division #3.00 
9.3 ISANI GIDUI (Origin Unknown) 
A very large midseason white. Two rows of very broad, rounded, 
smooth guard petals enclose a center of rich buff-yellow staminodes; 
carpels green, tipped pale yellow. Medium tall; vigorous; free 
flowering. A beautiful white Japanese variety. 
A Brand Division #5.00 
9.5 KUKENI JISHI (Origin Unknown) 
An early midseason variety with delicate flesh-pink guard petals 
enclosing a center of yellow staminodes with narrow tips roughly 
edged with richer yellow. The carpels are green with prominent 
white kernels at the base, and pale yellow tips. One of the most 
distinct of all Japanese Peonies. A Brand Division #5.00 
LUELLA SHAYLOR (Shaylor) 
A midseason creamy white with large, broad guard petals of pure 
white enclosing a dome center of petals tinted yellow. General 
effect a creamy yellow. A Brand Division #1.50 
MRS. MAC (Franklin) 
A splendid Japanese Peony brought out by Mr. Franklin. We have 
tried it out some ten years and like it exceedingly. Very strong 
plant, covered with delicate pink typical Japanese blooms, flushed 
and flecked with deeper tones of pink. A Brand Division #1.50 
OHANAGASA (Origin Unknown) 
A violet-red, unlike any other Japanese variety we list. An attrac¬ 
tive variety that commands attention in the field as well .as in the 
show room. A Brand Division #2.50 
PRAIRIE AFIRE (A. M. Brand) 
A beautiful new Japanese, first offered by us in 1932. A vase of 
Prairie Afire exhibited by us at the Des Moines Show was the sen¬ 
sation of the show. Prairie Afire is a new and entirely distinct 
break in color in Japanese Peonies. The guards are broad and a 
soft creamy rose with good substance. These surround a great ball 
of brilliant fiery red staminodes. The flower should be cut in the 
bud and developed inside when the result is simply marvelous. 
A Brand Division #5.00 
8.7 RASHOOMON (Japan) 
One of the best of the Japanese varieties for landscape planting, 
because of the clean beautiful appearance of the plant itself. Large 
blossoms. Color a deep rose-red. Center prominent cream-yellow. 
A Brand Division #2.00 
9.0 SOME GANOKO (Japan) 
One of the best of all red Japs. The large, uniformly shaped guard 
petals are a rich velvety red. The golden staminodes are streaked 
red. A good plant as well as a fine flower. 
A Brand Division #2.00 
TAIHO (Origin Unknown) 
A clear, delicate pink with broad guard petals that enclose a central 
tuft of creamy staminodes. A Brand Division #1.00 
9.0 TORO-NO-MAKI (Japan) 
One of the finest of all the white Japanese Peonies. It comes into 
bloom midseason. A double row of lilac-white guard petals sur¬ 
rounds a center of amber-yellow. A very striking variety in the 
garden and as a cut flower. An excellent upright grower.
