Mrs. Fern Lough (Gumm 1930) 9.17 Double, delicate pink, midseason bloomer, Color 
is similar to Tourangelle but infinitely better. Good foliage and stiff, strong 
stems holding the flowers erect. This variety possesses charm of high order. $4.50 
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt (Franklin 1933) 9.4 The rating on this peony has gradual- 
ly climbed, attesting to the worthiness of this beautiful creation. We believe 
this to be one of Mr. Franklin’s most outstanding contributions to the peony 
world. The flower is artistically formed, with extremely long, loose petals ot 
soft pink. A splendid grower with excellent blooming habit. Its huge size, 
form and color combine to make it most attractive and it will grow in popularity 
when better known. A grand exhibition bloom. Awarded gold medal in 1948. 
$3.50 
Mrs. George Rawson (Allison 1931) 8.84 Double flower of very light pink shading 
lighter to center. Late. Tall and fragrant. $2.00 
Mrs. Harry F, Little (Little 1936) 9.27 A late, flesh-pink that is very enticing and 
most desirable for any good planting of peonies. Stock very scarce at present 
and we only have a limited amount to offer. A more complete description of 
this variety will be compiled after this blooming season. $6.00 
Mrs. J. H. Neeley (Neeley 1931) 9.22 Late, flesh-pink. Good strong grower and a 
most desirable origination. We are now able to offer this )eony to a few peony 
enthusiasts who want the best. Only a small number of divisions available this 
year. $4.50 
Mrs. Livingston Farrand (Nicholls 1935) 9.36 We consider this one of the most out- 
standing originations, as far as color is concerned, that has been introduced 
in many years. A double, late-midseason variety. Large, well formed flowers 
of the purest pink yet seen in Chinensis peonies. A really sensational flower 
that is outstanding in the showroom or home garden. If Col. Nicholls had only 
originated this one variety, he would have left to posterity a living monument 
to his genius. Very fortunately, he has brought out several equally outstanding 
creations, some of which we are offering you in our list, and others will appear 
when available in some quantity. $8.00 
Myrtle Gentry (Brand 1925) 9.06 A beautiful, late, light pink that fades to nearly 
pure white with age. We consider this one of Mr. Brand’s finest creations. 
Gives a splendid account of itself wherever grown. Delightful tea rose fragrance 
that is entrancing. A perfect rose form flower, with great, broad, nicely rounded 
petals of wonderful substance. Tints of flesh and salmon show throughout the 
petals. Splendid grower with heavy foliage. The foliage is a rich, dark green 
and exceedingly attractive. This variety has instant appeal and allure and is 
much in demand. Dependable and satisfactory in every way. As near an ideal 
creation as one would wish. $2.50 
Nancy Bonner (Kelsey 1938) Light pink double with five V shaped red wedges on 
the central edges, which are divided, forming a butterfly pattern. Fragrant. 
Late midseason. Odd and unusual. $3.50 
Nick Shaylor (Allison 1931) 9.35 A most outstanding beauty and one much sought 
after. Double, late, blush or light pink, with occasional red markings. Some 
years these markings are more prominent than others, indicating weather con- 
ditions influence this characteristic. Very fine form, good plant growth and 
does well in all sections of the country. To be found in most high-class exhibits 
competing with the best of them for supremacy in its particular color class. 
No fine collection complete without it. $3.50
