LIGHT PINK PEONIES 
In this group will be included some flesh, salmon and lavender pinks, which are 
grouped in a general light pink class. It is impracticable to try to group each 
separately. 
Adonis (Sass 1930) 8.73 Double, midseason, light pink with a yellow collar. One of the 
best and most beautifully colored of this type. Pale pink petals appearing suf- 
fused throughout the yellow collar. Stock scarce. Stems strong and hold the 
flowers erect. This is really a fine one. $2.50 
Alberta Kelsey (Kelsey 1937) Sdlg. K-8. Double. Delightfully fragrant. Light 
rose pink. Gold tipped petals interspersed among the neatly cupped petals. 
Medium sized flowers. One flower is a bouquet. Combines beauty of petals and 
a delightful perfume. Early midseason. $4.00 
Anna Sass (Sass 1930) 8.76 Double, late midseason. Very beautiful, delicate light 
pink, toned orchid. Profuse grower on tall stems. $1.50 
Asa Gray (Crousse 1886) 8.1 Double, medium size, midseason. Pale pink thickly 
powdered with minute rosy dots, showing an occasional crimson edge. Fragrant. 
$1.00 
Bethel (Kelsey 1939) Pale pink double. A very refined bloom that Mr. Kelsey ad- 
mired very much. A more complete description after this years bloom. $3.00 
Blush (Nicholls 1941) Here is a peony that is unusually attractive and appealing to 
the eye. The delicate flesh coloring greatly adds to its effectiveness when used 
in flower arrangements. Flower of medium size held stiff and erect on wiry 
stems. A very lovely peony that appeals to all. Color holds well. $5.00 
Chestine Gowdy (Brand 1913) 8.4 Double. Large bloom, highly built. Guards and 
crown light rose. Collar creamy white. Fragrant. $1.00 
Chief (Franklin 1931) 9.00 Double, late, midseason. Very large, light pink. 
Fragrant. Received First Class Certificate of A.P.S. for outstanding merit. 
Very much worth while. $4.00 
Claude Barrow Jr. (Kelsey 1939) One of the largest and finest flowers in the garden. 
Double pink, informal shape. Very desirable. The above is Mr. Kelsey’s own 
description. A profuse bloomer. Long, very large, pointed buds. A show 
flower. $8.00 
Coral Isle (Kelsey 1939) Semi-double, late. Real coral color. Makes a striking color 
splash. Nothing like it in the garden. A real break in peony color. A limited 
stock this year. $5.00 
Coral Queen (H. P. Sass 1937) Not yet rated. Formerly known as seedling 6-27. A 
full double, late, low growing, rose-type, blush-pink, slightly deeper in center. 
Not nearly so deep a pink as name would indicate. A very outstanding flower 
in its color and a fine exhibition sort. $5.00 
Cornelia Shaylor (Shaylor 1917) 9.1 A late, large double type. high-built blooms 
with immense guards of pale rose and a collar of flesh white, with a slightly 
darker shade in the center of the compact, roselike center. Has a faint fragrance 
that is agreeable. Dark, glossy foliage. As with most of the very light pinks, 
this one will fade to white with age. Large and beautiful flower that is much 
admired in our planting. $1.50
