ALTAR CANDLES. A Japanese type with 
flesh-pink guard petals surrounding a cen- 
ter of narrow petaloids tipped crimson. 
A Brand Division $1.00 
HARRIET OLNEY. One of the very earliest 
of our singles. It opens a deep rose but 
gradually changes to a soft rose-pink. A 
very fine landscape variety and a good 
early cut flower. 
A Brand Division $1.00 
KAMENO-KEROGAMA. A large violet-crim- 
son just a shade lighter than King of Eng- 
land. The center is filled with partially 
transformed light yellow staminodes edged 
with gold and red. 
A Brand Division $1.00 
KING OF ENGLAND. A rich uniform shade 
of deep red. The large, uniformly rounded 
petals surround a center of self-colored 
petaloids prominently edged with gold. 
A Brand Division $1.50 
KRINKLED WHITE. First noticeable in the 
bud which resembles the bud of a pale 
pink Tulip just ready to burst. The bud is 
comparatively small and beautiful in effect. 
As it opens, it expands into a large flower 
with great broad, pure white petals, like 
crinkled crepe paper. Stems tall, straight, 
slender but strong; clean light green. 
Award of Merit, Des Moines National 
Show, and also five first prizes. 
A Brand Division $3.00 
LACINIATA. Here is a single bright scarlet 
that should be planted in several places in 
your perennial border. It comes into bloom 
very, very early and gives your garden a 
touch of red it so much needs in early 
spring. A Brand Division $2.00

Prairie Afire on Exhibit 
at the National Peony 
Show, Des Moines, June, 
1932, was Awarded the 
Home Achievement 
Medal for the Most 
Outstanding Feature of 
the Show 
LULU STRONG. Single mottled pink. We 
have always thought a great deal of the 
mottled pink variety, Marguerite Dessert. 
In Lulu Strong we have a somewhat simi- 
lar flower but the mottling is more pro- 
nounced. We think it a better flower. 
A Brand Division $3.00 
MRS. MAC. A splendid Japanese type 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 blooms, flushed and flecked with 
deeper tones of pink. Always a favorite in 
our show room. 
A Brand Division $1.50 
NIPPON BEAUTY. A late rich deep red of 
the Japanese type. The rich guard petals 
surround a center of petaloids edged yellow. 
The plant is a strong grower and free 
bloomer. An excellent red. 
A Brand Division $3.00 
PRAIRIE AFIRE. A beautiful Peony, Japa- 
nese type, originated by A. M. Brand. A 
vase of Prairie Afire was exhibited by us at 
the DesMoines Show and was the sensa- 
tion 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 re- 
sult is simply marvelous. 
A Brand Division $3.00 
PRIDE OF LANGPORT. A dainty flower of 
brilliant, soft peach-pink, coming into 
bloom midseason. The plant is tall, flori- 
ferous, with thin wiry stems and abundant 
foliage. The plant blooms in clusters and 
is a very decorative garden plant. 
A Brand Division $1.50 
RASROOMON. One of the best of the Japa- 
nese varieties for landscape planting, be- 
cause of the clean, beautiful appearance of 
the plant itself. Large blossoms. Color a 
deep rose-red. Center a prominent cream- 
yellow. A Brand Division $2.00 
RED GODDESS. A medium sized single red 
with two rows of petals enclosing an in- 
tense yellow center. The form of the flower 
attracts the eye and you are held spellbound 
by the beauty and richness of the coloring. 
An intense, deep, rich, velvety crimson. We 
consider this a real addition to our list of 
single red Peonies. 
A Brand Division $5.00 
TORO-NO-MAKI. One of the finest of all 
the white Japanese Peonies. It comes into 
bloom midseason. A double row of lilac- 
white guard petals surrounds a center of 
amber-yellow. A very striking variety in 
the garden and as a cut flower. An excel- 
lent upright grower. 
A Brand Division $3.00 
WASECA. A beautiful single of good size in 
a peculiar shade of red that is hard to de- 
scribe, as it was impossible to get satis- 
factory results in comparing with the color 
chart. A rich, deep maroon-red intensified 
by a brilliant golden center of stamens best 
describes it. The flower. has great sub- 
stance and the color is distinct.

May 19, 194I. 
“A few years ago i 
bought from you Japa- 
nese Peony ‘Prairie 
Afire’ and I am simply 
thrilled over tt as a cut 
flower developed m- 
doors. It’s simply gor- 
geous, sweet scented 
I’d have called tt 
of Wonderland’ 
had I originated it. 
never want to cut my 
blossoms of any flowers 
for indoors, that is why 
I was so disappointed 
the first time I saw tt 
blooming in my. garden. 
I am proud of it.”
