Light Pink Peonies (Continued) 
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. $2.50 
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 
Ottawa (Kelsey 1935) A double, rich pink shading lighter at base of petals. High 
built crown. A very good variety, but little known. $3.00 
Pastel (Nicholls 1941) Here is a charming peony very aptly named. Color a fine 
salmon pink. This is one of the new ones and little known to the general public. 
The stock we are growing is direct from the originator’s garden. $3.50 
Peach Blow (Shaylor 1938) 8.98 A very early bloomer, semi-double in form. Rather 
dwarf, with a delicate peach pink color. Valuable, due to its extreme earliness 
and beauty of flower. Stock rather scarce at the present time. Very much worth 
while. $4.00 
Phyllis Kelway (Kelway 1908) 9.0 We have always admired this semi-double variety 
due to its daintiness and artistic makeup. Color is rose pink, paling to white in 
center. Hollow, cupped form at first showing many stamens, later developing 
a flat crown which covers the imperfect collar. Faintly fragrant. Medium 
height. Very floriferous. $1.25
