Marilla Beauty (Kelsey 1940) A new 
beauty not yet rated officially. A 
large blush-white double of be- 
witching loveliness. A late bloomer 
of rare charm. The blush coloring is 
more pronounced toward the center _ 
of bloom, radiating to a lighter shade. 
We saw the original plant of this 
variety and it was breath-taking. 
It’s just one of those varieties you 
feel that you must have in the gar- 
den. A wonderful show bloom that 
will hold its own with the elite of the 
peony world. The large, broad 
petals have wonderful substance.

few very fine red lines on some of the central petals. Faint fragrance. Medium 
height and strong stems. Ruddy foliage. $2.00 
Mother’s Day (Kelsey 1936) Double, midseason, very tall, clear white. This is an 
exceptionally fine peony and one of the best we have seen. A gem of the first 
water. It is impossible to view this peony without being greatly impressed with 
its beauty and stateliness. We consider this a glorified Elsa Sass, if such a com- 
parison is possible. .The long wiry stems and the clear white charmingly shaped 
blooms that come in profusion every year make this an ideal cut-flower. We are 
the co-purchaser of the entire originator’s stock. $10.00
