INTER-STATE’S SELECTED PEONIES 
We are one of America’s largest Peony growers and critical buyers have told us that we produce the finest Peony plants 
they ever saw. We send you strong 3- to 5-eye divisions from vigorous three-year-old plants. We believe there are none 
finer grown. Plant them this fall, covering the eyes with 2 inches of soil. Put the plants 3 to 4 feet apart, as they last a 
lifetime, and get larger each passing year, producing more and more lovely blooms. They prefer a sunny location but 
late afternoon or early morning shade will not hurt them. Below we offer some of the world’s finest varieties. Their 
first cost is greater but when you remember they last a lifetime, then the added cost per year is only a few cents. Unless 
described differently, all are large, double flowered. POSTPAID. 
FP616 A. B. FRANKLIN. Late. Rates 9.27. This is a very fine, 
very large double flower. At first it is an exquisite blush which 
lightens to a pure white. Each $4.00. 
FP620 BLANCHE KING. Late. Rated 8.9 but should be much 
higher. We consider this one of the very best deep pinks. Large 
flower of fine form. Each $3.50. 
FP627 ELIZABETH HUNTINGTON. Midseason. Rates 8.98 and 
we think should be rated 9.25, as this is one of the most beautiful 
Peonies in our fields. Large, double flowers on tall, graceful stems. 
The color is simply beautiful. We describe it as light pink but you 
have to see it to realize how lovely it is. There is none other 
exactly like it. Each $1.50. 
FP628 ELSA SASS. Late. Rates 9.46. Acknowledged by the best 
Peony judges to be one of America’s finest white Peonies. Large 
blooms with the petals curved slightly inward, it has a form all of 
its own and the color is a soft, rich, warm white. Each $5.00. 
FP630 EVENING STAR. Late. Rates 9.50. We believe this will 
find its place as one of the greatest of all white Peonies. It is a 
pure snow-white, sometimes a few center petals have a thin 
crimson edge. The form is absolutely perfect as though each petal 
were placed by hand. Each $5.00. 
FP698 FUYAJO. Midseason. Rates 9.2. This is a Japanese type 
Peony and the color is a very rich mahogany-red. Not new yet 
few people have it and nearly everybody likes it when they see 
it blooming. 
Each $1.00. 

Marietta Sisson 
FP638 GOLDEN DAWN. Midseason. Rates 8.58. As the name 
indicates this variety has yellow blooms. For best color, they 
should be cut in the bud and opened indoors. Each $1.00. 
FP642 HANS P. SASS. Late. Rates 9.19. Out of all his origina- 
tions, Mr. Hans P. Sass selected this to bear his own name. Very 
large flowers of a glorious shell-pink. It is one of the truly great 
Peonies. Each $2.50. 
FP661 MARIETTA SISSON. Early. Rates 9.02. This is the first 
pink Peony to bloom in our fields. The flowers are very large, 
a glowing pink and completely cover the entire bush so that you 
can hardly see any foliage. It is our best real early pink. The 
flower is more than twice as large as pictured. Each $1.00. 
FP675 MRS. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT. Midseason. Rates 
9.40. Very large, perfect flowers of a soft rose color that we think 
the finest of this shade. It is exquisite and to see it is to 
want it. Each $5.00. 
FP676 NICK SHAYLOR. Late midseason. Rates 9.35. Extremely 
large and absolutely perfectly formed flowers of light pink suffused 
a delicate salmon which makes the flower sparkle. It is one of 
the world’s greatest Peonies. Each $4.00. 
FP679 QUEEN OF HAMBURG. Midseason. Rates 8.96 and we 
think it will go higher. One of the largest flowers in our fields yet 
perfectly proportioned so that it does not seem awkward. The color 
is a rich pink that does not fade. It will thrill you. Each $2.50. 
FP684 SEASHELL. Midseason. Too new to be rated. 
Large, single flowers of bright pink with a full center 
of golden stamens on tall, graceful stems. The entire 
bush is simply covered with the beautiful flowers. It is 
the finest pink single Peony we have ever seen. It will 
be outstanding in your garden. Each $2.50. 
FP686 SOLANGE. Late. Rates 9.27. At its best, it is 
unbeatable and for many years has been considered one 
of the finest Peonies. Huge rounded flowers of perfect 
shape. It is a creamy white with a suffusion of buff and 
light pink. Each $1.00. 
FP688 TEMPEST. Midseason. A new variety from Auten 
that is without doubt one of the very best dark rich red 
Peonies. The color holds and has a glow that makes it 
very attractive. Tall, strong stems. We think it will rate 
high. Each $2.50. 
FP693 WALTER FAXON. Midseason. Rates 9.30. A 
vivid intense salmon-pink that is entirely different from 
all others. It has a rich glow that is unique. It is one of 
the all-time great Peonies. Let the blooms open indoors 
to see its richest color. Each $1.00.
