LAST ROSE (Sass) 
An exquisite pale pink that comes into bloom late in the Peony 
season. Perhaps it received its name for its late appearance. A full 
double that always opens well with us. Stock still scarce.

LAURA DESSERT (Dessert) 
The flower is round, a rose type with guard petals creamy white, 
enclosing a dome-like center of pure canary-yellow. Like Fanny 
Crosby, the plant is an upright grower, holding blossoms erect for 
good landscape value. Like all yellows, it must be developed in- 
side away from the sun to preserve its color. Early midseason.

LIBERTY BELL (Dr. J. H. Neeley) 
An unusually fine deep pink coming into bloom very late in the 
season. It has all the qualities of a fine flower and fills a distinct 
need in its color class. We have not been able to list this variety 
often in our catalog but we have grown it in our fields and watched 
it long enough to know we are offering a very fine distinct variety 
in Liberty Bell. A Brand Division $3.00 
LILLIAN GUMM (Gumm) 
A uniform apple-blossom-pink with more brilliant shadings at the 
base of petals. The flower is large, globular in form, rose type, 
with broad petals, and a cupped center. A fragrant late midseason 
variety. A reliable bloomer. A Brand Division $2.00 
LONGFELLOW (Brand) 
Everyone concedes Longfellow one of the most popular red 
Peonies because of its distinct, fadeless color and general depend- 
ability, both for cutting and garden decoration. It is as striking in 
the field as in the show room. It comes into bloom early mid- 
season, The plant has excellent foliage and strong stiff stems. The 
flower is a bright crimson and is always found among the winning 
classes in the show room. A Brand Division $2.00 
LORA DEXHEIMER (Brand) 
To us, the splendid habit and brilliant color of this plant have 
exceptional merit. We first selected it from the seed bed in 1904. 
Each succeeding year it has grown in our esteem. Color intense 
flaming crimson. Early midseason. A variety that ranks with Long: 
fellow. From all parts of the country, we have reports of the won- 
derful qualities of Lora Dexheimer. A Brand Division $1.50

9 to 12 inches in diameter. The stems are strong and hold the

MATHILDA LEWIS (Saunders) 
This is a large midseason variety resembling Mons. Martin Cahuzac 
but coming into bloom about a week later. The plant is medium 
tall, upright, with good stems and excellent foliage. This is one 
of the very darkest of all reds. It makes a fine show flower. For 
best results it should be cut in the bud and developed inside. If left 
on the plant the silky petals burn in the hot sun. 
A Brand Division $5.00 
MME. DE VERNEVILLE (Crousse) 
We feel this variety is much under-rated. Flower large, very full, 
bomb type. Guard petals sulphur-white; center petals rose-white 
with carmine touches; good substance. Long, strong stems; ideal 
cut flower. Pleasing fragrance. Comes into bloom after Festiva 
Maxima, and we regard it far superior in beauty. See color page

MME EMILE LEMOINE (Lemoine) 
A rare and beautiful white, coming into bloom late in the season. 
The flowers are very large, uniform in shape and size, with center 
petals irregularly marked carmine. The plant is rather tall with 
strong, erect stems. A most satisfactory garden flower and a won- 
derful show flower. A Brand Division $1.50 
MODELE DE PERFECTION (Crousse) 
This is another of the older varieties that we have never been 
willing to discard. The color is a flesh-pink tipped with silver, 
marked with bright rose deepening in the center. The flower is 
compact and of distinct form. A free blooming variety with good 
stems and foliage. Late. A Brand Division $1.50 
MONS. JULES ELIE (Crousse) 
immense self-colored flesh-pink shading to a trifle deeper to- 
ward the base of the petals. Great prominent broad guard petals 
enclose an immense ball of incurved petals of the same color, all 
covered with an intense silvery sheen. It looks more like a huge 
Chrysanthemum than a Peony. The plant is medium tall with 
strong stems. An early bloomer with pleasing fragrance. See color

GOLD 
MEDAL 
A fragrant 
white that is 
hard to beat 
in the show 
room. Since 
this variety 
flowers late, 
it may not 
do well in all 
localities. 
(A. M. B d) 
A midseason, rich dark crimson. It is darker than oneceliogs 
but not the color of Mons. Martin Cahuzac. It is a flower of 
wonderful substance and holds up well after being cut and for 
this reason it makes a fine garden and show flower. Although 
this variety is listed as new and few roots have been sold, we 
have watched it year after year for over 16 years and we are 
willing to place it among the very best reds.

MRS. DEANE FUNK (A. M. Brand) 
A Walter-Faxon-pink coming into bloom early midseason. The 
flower resembles Phyllis Kelway and is one of the finest of all 
Peonies for use in decorative work in making up large baskets or 
vases of flowers. A distinct band of golden stamens lights up the 
entire flower and these stamens enclose a rosebud, cup-shaped 
center of large incurving petals, Magnificent in the show room.
