White Peonies (Continued) 
Fred W. Pratt (Kelsey 1935) Double. Pure white outer petals, inner petals yellow, 
overcast with pure white. Earlier than Primevere, which it resembles. Deeper 
shade of yellow at base of petals. Anemone center. $2.00 
Gleam of Gold (Sass 1937) A double, midseason variety. White guard petals with 
yellow petals intermingled in the collar. Good, strong stems. The narrow petals 
in the center are very brilliant deep-yellow, lighting up the flower and giving 
the bloom a very attractive appearance. The flowers are very large. Its name is 
adequately descriptive of its general color appearance. A lovely and most de- 
sirable origination. $4.00 
Golden Dawn (Gumm 1923) 8.58 A late, midseason double. White guards and 
bright yellow center. Stems excellent. One of the best “near yellows.” $1.00 
Grace Gedge (Kelsey 1934) Double, late midseason. Creamy white, flushed with 
pink. Very refined. Resembles Nick Shaylor in color. $3.50 
Harry F. Little (Nicholls 1933) 9.42 Very large white with a faint blush of pink in 
the inner petals. When at its best a faultless flower. Awarded the Gold Medal 
of the American Peony Society for excellence. This variety not as well known as 
it should be, as the stock has been difficult to obtain. We are co-purchasers of 
the originator’s entire stock, $2.00 
Ivory Brooch (Kelsey 1943) Double, ivory white. Outer petals tightly incurved over 
a closely packed center. As the flower matures these outer petals still retain 
their slightly crimped and incurved formation. The total effect is a medallion 
like bloom, resembling a carved brooch of ivory. Formation very uncommon. 
The bloom always has a bud-like appearance. $3.00
