White Peonies (Continued) 
Nancy Nicholls (Nicholls 1941) A grand white with a pink suffusion at the center 
of bloom that is most artistic. Here is a variety really worth while and we are 
indeed fortunate in having a good stock to offer direct from the originator’s 
garden. This is one of the new, fine peonies still unrated. Watch for it at the 
shows and you will be impressed with its beauty which is very appealing. $4.00

Late bloomer. Tall growing. A very distinguished flower. This will make a 
fine addition to any peony planting. $2.00

center. Fine show flower. $2.50 
Pale Face (Kelsey 1940) White double. Good strong stems. Very desirable and 
worth-while. $2.50

bridizers have been working on for years to obtain a real, full, double yellow.

creamy white cupped guards, rarely showing spots of red. Center composed of 
short, narrow petals of canary-yellow, becoming light with age. Fragrant. Good

is well chosen, $3.50

the red on white will delight with this variety. Grows quite tall. $4.00
