“Blowers from the Wilds of Missouri” 
PEONIES 
GARDEN PRINCESS (Neeley, 1930) (9.1) Each $1.00 
A rich silvery soft light pink fading to white. Outer petals large 
and uniformly rounded, making a flower of pleasing form. Golden 
stamens intermingled with center petals add charm to the flower. 
Vigorous, tall growing, midseason. 
GEORGE W. PEYTON 
GEORGE W. PEYTON (Nicholls, 1938) (9.43) Each $3.50 
A late flesh colored peony of outstanding merit. We have grown 
this fine peony for the past few years and have been much im- 
pressed with it. Mr. Peyton is an acknowledged authority on 
peonies. We think you will like it sufficiently well to add it to 
your collection. There is a pinkish blush tone in the flower that 
adds to its beauty. Fully double, good stems, medium height. 
GEORGIANA SHAYLOR (Shaylor, 1908) (8.9) Each $1.00 
Pale rose pink, with a few flecks of crimson. Very large, flat 
flower. Strong grower. One of the finest. Late midseason. 
GLEAM OF GOLD (Sass) Each $1.00 
White with a broad yellow collar, creating an exquisite combi- 
nation of gold and white. 
GLORIANA (Neeley, 1918) (9.06) 
Large pink double. Well formed. Very tall. 
GOLDEN DAWN (Gumm, 1923) (8.43) 
Each 75c, 3 for $2.00 
A late, midseason double. White guards and bright yellow cen- 
ter. Stems excellent. One of the best “near yellows.” 
GOLDFINCH (Kelsey, 1936) Each $3.00 
Pale pink guards with pale yellow center. One of the yellowest 
centers to be found in the garden. Feathers slightly. Flowers 
large. 
GOVERNOR FULLER (Thurlows and Stranger, 1930) (8.66) 
Each $1.50 
Large globular flowers of fresh shell pink, shading somewhat 
deeper toward the center with a cupped effect. Fragrant. Late. 
Each $1.00 
GRACE GEDGE (Kelsey, 1934) Each $4.00 
Fully double, cream-white flush with a delicate shade of pink. 
Late bloomer. A flower of exquisite refinement. Resembles Nick 
Shaylor in color. A very fine variety. 
GRACE KELSEY (Kelsey, 1935) Each $4.00 
Double midseason. A bewitching shade of pink. Flowers large, 
fragrant and holds colors well. Huge size. Good stiff stems, 
holding the flower perfectly erect. Mr. Kelsey named this va- 
riety in honor of his wife and if it were not a good peony it 
would not have received that honor. 
GRACE LOOMIS (Saunders, 1920) (9.20) 
Each $1.00, 3 for $2.50 
A very handsome, large, late fragrant white with lemon tints 
reflected in the center. 
GRANDIFLORA (Richardson, 1883) (8.8) Each $1.00 
One of the latest peonies to bloom in the garden, and for that 
reason very desirable to extend the season. A bright pink, dou- 
ble, flat bloom, that attains a very large size. The fragrance is 
very pronounced, but not particularly pleasing, according to our 
standard of smell. 
GRANDIFLORA NIVEA PLENA (Lemon, 1824) (8.1) 
Each $1.00 
Double type, very large and early. Guards large, faintly pink 
becoming white. Ball-like center of small pale yellow petals 
fading white. Prominent red markings. Sweetly fragrant. 
GUIDON (Nicholls, 1941) Each $3.00 
A lilac pink of good depth. Too new to have a rating, but it 
should have a good one. We like this one. 
HANSINA BRAND (Brand, 1925) (9.04) 
Each $2.50, 3 for $6.00 
A lovely, glistening flesh pink with a salmon reflex shading 
toward the base of the petals. This variety has been a consistant 
winner at national and local peony exhibitions and is most de- 
pendable, giving a splendid performance every year. A late 
bloomer, and as the flowers fade they resemble a _ perfectly 
formed specimen of Solange; it never fails to produce fine flow- 
ers. A “must have” for any fine planting of peonies. 
HANS P. SASS 
HANS P. SASS (H. P. Sass, 1939) (9.19) 
Each $1.50, 3 for $3.00 
Mr. Sass has brought out some outstanding peonies, and when 
he selected one to bear his name it is quite evident it must have 
been desirable in every way. A very large, late, rich satin blush 
white, suffused shell pink, illuminated with an inner glow that 
is indescribable with words. Must be seen to fully appreciate 
its beauty and refinement. A very consistant and free bloomer.
