much later in the season. A large flower of rose type, loosely formed, with 
long, broad petals. In color it is a deep, rose-pink, shading lighter toward the 
edges. Plant tall and vigorous. A flower of much grace and refinement in 
structure. Stock rather limited. $3.00 
Little Buffalo (Kelsey 1939) Miniature, semi-double. Pink. Very interesting due to 
its dwarf growing habits. Slender, red stems. Early, midseason bloomer. $2.00 
Lottie Dawson Rea (John L. Rea 1939) Double, midseason. A very trim flower of 
light pink with exquisite tints. Received Honorable Mention Certificate of the 
A.P.S. Stock still very scarce and too new to be officially rated. $15.00 
Lucy Dunn (Kelsey 1942) Big double, light pink. Attractive in bud and half-opened 
flowers. $2.00 
Lulu Little (Little 1938) Late midseason, light pink. Mr. Little, who originated this 
variety, is one of our most able peony authorities and a noted judge of peonies, 
selected this variety from his seedlings and gave it his daughter’s name; 
something he would not have done had the peony not possessed real merit. Stock 
very limited. $10.00

is a charming fiower with several rows of fluffy, crepe like petals of clear, light 
pink, serrated at tips near center. Stamens very prominent. Anthers golden 
yellow with paler filaments. A very lovely flower that is simply stunning in the 
garden and landscape. $2.00 
Minuet (Franklin 1931) 9.19 It richly deserves this rating. Very large, full rose 
type. Color, a most pleasing light pink. Stiff stems, strong grower, reaching 
50 inches in height, with foliage to the ground. A grand cut flower, as it has 
splendid keeping qualities. A recent introduction of Mr. Franklin that has re- 
ceived numerous awards and a variety that has truly outstanding merit. 
$4.50

outer petals. Pink in center. Good stems. Petals symmetrically arranged form- 
ing a lovely bloom. $4.50
