This variety is one of the very earliest of our singles to give 
color to our fields. It opens a deep rose but gradually changes 
to a soft rose-pink. The plant is medium tall with straight, 
stiff stems which hold the flower well erect. A very fine 
landscape variety. A Brand Division $1.50

Harriet Olney 
(Japan) 
One of the best of the Japanese varieties for landscape planting, 
because of the clean, beautiful appearance of the plant itself. The 
large glowing rose-red guard petals enclose a center of slender 
staminodes edged yellow and pinkish buff. The plant is medium 
tall with strong stems and flowers freely. A beautiful flower.

SCHWINDT (Goos & Koenemann) 
An early violet-rose single, shading lighter at the edge of petals. 
The plant is tall with heavy foliage and stiff stems that produce 
great clusters of flowers if not disbudded. A decorative garden 
variety. A Brand Division $1.50 
(Japan) 
A large midseason rosy pink with broad rounded guard petals. 
The center is composed of loose staminodes, broad and crinkled, 
faced light pink. The plant is tall, with dark broad foliage. An 
excellent variety and a much better grower with us than Tamate- 
boku, which we have been forced to discard. 
A Brand Division $2.00 
VERA (Gumm) 
An early midseason single with large cupped guard petals of a 
very dark maroon-crimson with a silky sheen. The guard petals 
enclose a compact center of clear golden stamens, with yellowish 
carpels tipped bright red. The plant is tall and erect.

Krinkled White 
9.0 KRINKLED WHITE (A. M. Brand) 
First noticeable in the bud which resembles the bud of a pale 
pink Tulip just ready to burst. The bud is comparatively 
small and beautiful in effect. As it opens, it expands into 
a large flower with great broad, pure white petals, like 
krinkled crepe paper. Stems tall, straight, slender but strong; 
clean light green. Award of Merit, Des Moines National 
Show. In 1949 at the National Peony Show held in Mil- 
waukee, Wis., Krinkled White won 4 first prizes, 3 second 
prizes, a Bronze Medal for the best single type Peony in the 
Show, and was also the best white single in the Show. Espe- 
cially fine for cutting. A Brand Division $3.00 
Fond du Lac, Wis. 
“Referring to enclosed order, permit me to comment on your Krinkled 
White Peony. A friend planted one of these last fall and tells me 
she had fine blooms this year. She brought me one bloom last Friday 
(June 8th) and it is today an exquisite bloom after five days being 
cut. Do not recall ever having a Peony last as long in the house and 
in the living room—no especial care except fresh water daily and 
weather seasonably warm. Hope I can report as favorably another year 
with the one I am ordering herewith.” 
8.4 L’ETINCELANTE (Dessert) 
Dark pink. Very large flowers decidedly cup-shaped; great 
broad petals of deep bright pink, heavily margined with 
silver; a large center of bright yellow stamens.
