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

fine addition to any peony planting. $2.00

center. Fine show flower. $2.50 
Party Gown (Kelsey 1939) Double late, large satiny white of dainty loveliness. The 
name was well chosen by Mr. Kelsey who possessed a rare faculty for selecting 
names so appropriate for his originations. $2.50 
Primevere (Lemoine 1907) 8.6 One of the near yellow Chinensis peonies that hy- 
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 
dark green, rather coarse foliage. When well grown from good, healthy stock,

pink and gold in center. Extremely beautiful in form and petal arrangement.

Solange (Lemoine 1907) 9.27 Here is a beauty that takes a long time to make its ap- 
pearance from the opening bud. The petals are so densely packed, they produce 
the effect of two or three flowers trying to develop from one bloom. Color 
creamy white with a suffusion of buff and pale salmon pink. $2.00
