ADOLPHE ROUSSEAU (Dessert & Mechin) 
One of the very good early dark reds. The plant is very tall and 
holds its flowers so erect that it makes a fine showing. One of the 
finest of all red Peonies as a landscape variety. A great dark, un- 
usually rich red that looks almost black when viewed from a dis- 
tance. A Brand Division $1.50 
A. B. FRANKLIN (Franklin) 
A large, late, double white that opens with a faint rosy flush with 
a tinge of pinkish cream in the center. Petals are closely packed in 
Roselike arrangement. Flower is perfect in form, of great sub- 
stance, and is delicately fragrant. Plant is medium tall, with ex- 
cellent foliage and stiff, straight stems. One of the very best of all 
white Peonies. This fine white was awarded a Gold Medal by the 
American Peony Society in 1933. A Brand Division $5.00 
A. J. DAVIS (Brand) 
A very large, loose, semi-rose, midseason red. The flowers are 
generally produced one to a stem. The petals are loosely arranged, 
showing stamens. A tall growing variety and consistent bloomer 
A Brand Division $1.00 
A. G. PERRY (A. M. Brand) 
A rich old ivory, tinted delicate rose-pink, with zones of deeper 
pink radiating from the center of the flower to the edge of the 
petals. It comes into bloom early midseason. Plant has fine upright 
growth habit, medium tall, strong stems and clean foliage. One of 
our newer Peonies that we know will please the most exacting. 
A Brand Division $3.50 
(In the December Peony Bulletin of 1936, G. W. Peyton of Rapidan, 
Virginia, writes regarding 10 best Peonies that season, “Alluringly 
attired in robes of softest pink, shading to creamy white, A. G. Perry 
was easily one of the finest flowers to be found.*) 
ALBERT CROUSSE (Crousse) 
Albert, Felix, and Marie Crousse are three noteworthy Peonies. 
Albert Crousse is a beautiful soft shell-pink with narrow compact 
petals. An outstanding late midseason variety. If your garden 
needs a substantial late light pink, you will be pleased with this 
variety. A Brand Division $1.00 
ALESIA (Lemoine) 
A late midseason white with large blooms of perfect form, that 
deepen towards the center to an ivory glow. The plant is tall, 
stems good, and excellent foliage This is one of the finest varie- 
ties Lemoine ever sent out and the fragrant flowers are equal in 
beauty to Le Cygne, La Lorraine or Alice Harding.

AUGUSTE DESSERT (Dessert) 
A large midseason rose-red, with large round petals, each edged 
with a distinct narrow silver border. Plant of medium height and 
a prolific bloomer. A brilliant light rose-red that is very distinct 
in color and form and a most desirable sort. : 
A Brand Division $2.00 
AVALANCHE (Crousse) 
A choice creamy white coming into bloom late in the season. The 
flower is large and compact, with a collar of creamy white petals 
surrounding a center of delicately tinted lilac-white petals occa- 
sionally edged carmine. A choice cut flower and also a fine show 
flower. See color page 44. A Brand Division $1.00 
BARONESS SCHROEDER (Kelway) 
This is considered one of the finest white Peonies grown. When 
the last symposium was taken, this variety received a rating of 9.0 
after 79 people had voted. When the buds first open, they are a 
delicate blush, but the flower soon fades to a milky white. This is 
a variety that should be found in every collection. It comes into 
bloom late, after most of the white Peonies are gone. 
A Brand Division $1.50 
BLANCHE KING (A.M. Brand) 
For a good, deep, late pink we do not believe a better variety has 
been introduced to date. The flower is of wonderful size, sym- 
metrical in form, and of true Rose type. It is a glowing deep pink 
that holds its color perfectly in the field and also develops into a 
wonderful show flower. It is not only a consistent prize winner in 
all the shows but it is also an excellent garden variety. This fine 
pink has received an Award of Merit, has had the distinction of 
being judged the best flower in many large Peony shows where 
competition was keen and is always found in many of the other 
winning classes. One of the latest to bloom. See color page 41.
