PEONIES 
MRS. EDWARD HARDING 
MRS. JOHN M. KLEITSCH (A. M. Brand, 1925) (9.0) 
Each $1.00, 3 for $2.50 
A tall, very late deep pink with exceedingly strong, heavy stems 
and large green foliage. The petals are long, broad, pointed, 
and of great substance. A fragrant flower of true rose type. 
When you think the peony season is over, Mrs. John M. Kleitsch 
comes along to top off the season. 
MRS. J. V. EDLUND (J. V. Edlund, 1929) (9.5) 
Each $2.50, 3 for $6.00 
This is a large pure white flower of most perfect form. In vot- 
ing off the tie with Hansina Brand at the Toronto National 
Show, this flower was awarded best flower in the show. It is 
a late large pure white that is in bloom with Blanche King, 
Genevieve, Mrs. A. M. Brand, and Mrs. Frank Beach. It is one 
of the very finest of all peonies. 
MRS. JOHN M. GOOD (Good & Reese, 1929) (9.14) 
Each $1.00 
Pure white. Late midseason. Resembling Jubilee, but stronger 
stems. 
MRS. J. H. NEELEY (Dr. J. H. Neeley, 1931) (9.2) Each $2.00 
A late flowering blush white with a greenish reflex at the base 
of petals. Center petals enlivened with yellowish pink or sal- 
mon tones that are attractively different. A new variety that 
seems destined to earn a place among the truly great peonies. 
MRS. LIVINGSTON FARRAND (Nicholls, 1935) (9.36) 
Each $8.00 
We consider this one of the most outstanding originations, as 
far as color is concerned, that has been introduced in many 
years, A double late midseason variety. Large well-formed flow- 
ers of the purest pink yet seen in chinensis peonies. A really 
sensational flower that is outstanding in the show room or home 
garden. If Col. Nicholls had only originated this one variety, 
he would have left to posterity a living monument to his genius.

Double. Midseason. Blush. Very large creamy pink cup-shaped 
flowers borne on good stems of medium height. Fragrance

tinction.

is medium large rose type, with a delightful rose fragrance.

with great, broad, nicely rounded petals of wonderful substance.
