Dark Pink Peonies (Continued) 
Rosada (Nicholls 1942) Late midseason. Very large and tall, wide petaled, full double 
of medium rose pink. Honorable Mention Certificate by A.P.S. A very desirable 
acquisition for any fine peony collection. $4.00 
Rosalie (Auten 1927) 8.78 Here is a little gem for your garden that can occupy a 
space where a tall-growing variety would not be satisfactory. As the name 
implies, it has the appearance of a large rose. Has some stamens, but they are 
well hidden in the depth of the bloom. Full double, medium-sized bloom. 
Clear, rose color. $1.50 
Rose Glory (Otis 1940) Double, large, rose colored flower. A new color departure. 
Fragrant, early-midseason. Semi-dwarf. Good, strong stems. Stock very scarce 
and little available. $4.50 
Sarah Bernhardt (Lemoine 1906) 9.0 A double, late-midseason variety that is much 
in demand as a florists’ variety. The dark rose-pink color, with petals edged a 
trifle lighter, gives an attractive appearance. Was originated in 1906, but still 
is a very popular variety, as it carries in storage very well. Also will be found 
in large collections on the show table competing with more recent originations. 
$1.00 
Sandra K. (Kelsey 1940) A big double pink with strong stems and good foliage. 
Stock limited. $3.00 
Souvenir de Louis Bigot (Dessert 1913) 9.1. Double, large midseason, vivid rose pink, 
deepening to shell pink in center. Very good landscape variety. $1.00 
Spring Beauty (Nicholls 1933) 8.43 A very early, huge, rose pink bloom that has 
much appeal as it opens the season in the large double varieties. We like this 
one very well and think you will. Much admired by visitors in our garden. $2.50 
The Nathans (Kelsey 1937) Large, rose-pink double. Semi-dwarf. Pleasing fra- 
grance. Broad outer petals. Center closely twisted and overlappin 2. $2.00 
RED PEONIES 
Augustin d’ Hour (Calot 1867) 7.8 While this variety was originated many years ago 
and has a low rating, it is nevertheless a very desirable peony for either cut 
flowers or for the landscape. Color and form similar to Felix Crousse but with 
stronger stems. A very good red for landscape planting. $1.00 
Black Warrior (Nicholls 1941) Not yet rated. A full double, midseason bloomer, 
red-black in color. No stamens show. Medium size and height. A most inter- 
esting introduction. $3.50 
Burma (Lins 1945) A beautifully formed deep red coming into bloom in mid- 
season. Strong stems hold the flowers erect. Very distinctive. $15.00 
Chippewa (Murawska 1941) A double, midseason red with more than ordinary 
appeal as to color, which is outstanding. A very tall, strong grower, much ad- 
mired. Stock in demand and very limited in quantity. $4.00 
Eugene Bigot (Dessert 1894) 8.3 Double type, large, late crimson with violet tinge, 
brightened by slightly silvery tips. Fragrance pleasant but weak. Stiff stems, 
good foliage. $1.00 
Fannie Lee (Vories 1924) 8.48 Midseason red. Rather tall, strong growing variety. 
Stock limited. Fortunately we have a fair stock to offer. $2.00
