Philippe Rivoire 
Late, $5.00 
Highest rated and 
richest coloring of 
all red Peonies. 



| 8.9 NANCY DOLMAN (Vories) 
| A distinctive rose-pink of conical form and of great size. Although 
‘a very late variety, it seems to open as well in the South as in the 
North. The plant is very tall, with strong, heavy stems that bear 
blooms of extra large size and fully double. One of the best of 
Vories’ originations. $2.59 
NICK SHAYLOR (Shaylor & Allison) 
In our estimation one of the very best of the newer Peonies. A 
beautiful rounded cup-shaped bloom with tremendously large, 
| ‘nicely rounded petals that overlap one another as the petals of a 
Rose. The color is a deep pure flesh-pink with markings of a deeper, 
richer pink. We consider Nick Shaylor a top-notch variety. $5.00 
R. A. NAPIER (A. M. Brand) 
This is a Peony we are especially proud of. After watching its per- 
formance over a long period in both seed beds and fields, we sent 
out the first roots in 1939. We have always thought a vase of per- 
fectly developed Tourangelle was about the last word in Peonies. 
In R. A. Napier, we have a Peony of practically the same form and 
color, a Peony that might easily be mistaken for Tourangelle. But 
Tourangelle seldom comes good in Minnesota while R. A. Napier 
is good every year. $5.00 
This variety was judged the best light, double pink at the National 
Show held in Guelph, Ont., Canada, in June. 

RED GODDESS (A. M. Brand) 
A medium sized, semi-double red with two rows of petals enclosing 
an intense yellow center. The form of the flower attracts the eye and 
you are held spellbound by the beauty and the richness of the 
coloring. An intense, deep rich, velvety crimson. We consider 
this a real addition to our list of semi-double red Peonies. $5.00

9.1 ROSE SHAYLOR (Shaylor) 
A yery large midseason pale flesh-pink, tinted with rose-pink, 
* lighter at the edges and shading to a creamy yellow at base of 
petals; center petals strongly marked crimson on the edges, The 
plant is tall, strong, free flowering with good foliage on stiff 
stems. Another of Mr. Shaylor’s fine Peonies. $2.00 
SAM DONALDSON (Brand 1943) 
We have been looking for a long time for a Peony as dark as 
Mons. Martin Cahuzac but with better plant habits. We believe 
we have this requirement in our new Peony, Sam Donaldson, 
named for an old schoolboy friend. This is a late Peony, in sea- 
son with Philippe Rivoire. It has the beautiful dark red color of 
Cahuzac. but it is a much stronger plant. The plant is of good 
height, blooms medium to large, deep, globular in form, and of 
semi-Rose type. Mons. Martin Cahuzac burns quickly in the hot 
sun, but our new variety will stand right up in the sun without 
burning, $15.00 
T. C. CARPENTER (A. M. Brand) 
A new flower of ours which we are listing this year for the 
second time. A medium sized flower composed of large, nicely 
rounded petals neatly arranged in perfect circles, and possessing 
great substance. The color is similar to that of the great So- 
lange, a pure ivory with a yellowish tinge. A superbly balanced 
flower. From our long study of this flower, we believe it will 
prove one of the coming great Peonies. $5.00 
9.1 W. E. BLANCHETTE (A. M. Brand) 
It is seldom we are able to offer this fine red, but when we made 
our last planting in the fall, we reserved 10 fine plants for our 
spring sales. This is one of the largest reds we have seen. It is 
a loose semi-rose type with immense broad petals arranged in 
symmetrical form like the petals of a Rose. $7.50 
Don’t compare prices. It is quality that counts. 
Brand divisions are noted for their fine quality 
and being true to name.
