Mrs. F. D. Roosevelt 
when used as a cut flower and exposed to artificial lighting. The strong stiff 
stems also make it a good garden variety. $7.00 
Mrs. Fern Lough (Gumm 1930) Double, delicate pink, mid-season bloomer. Good 
foliage and stiff, strong stems holding the flowers erect. This variety possesses 
charm of high order. $3.50 
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt (Franklin 1933) We believe this to be one of Mr. 
Franklin’s most outstanding contributions to the peony world. The flower is 
artistically formed, with extremely long, loose petals of soft pink. A splendid 
grower with excellent blooming habit. Its huge size, form and color combine 
to make it most attractive. A grand exhibition bloom. $3.00 
Mrs. Harry F. Little (Little 1936) A late flesh pink that is very enticing and most 
desirable for any good planting. $3.00 
Mrs. J. H. Neeley (Neeley 1931) Blush pink with a greenish reflex at the base of 
petals. Center petals enlivened with yellowish pink or salmon tones. $2.50 
Mrs. Livingston Farrand (Nicholls 1935) We consider this one of the most out- 
standing originations, as far as color is concerned, that has been introduced 
in many years. A double, late-mid-season variety. Large, well formed flowers 
of the purest pink yet seen in Chinensis peonies. A really sensational flower 
that is outstanding in the showroom or home garden. If Col. Nicholls had only 
originated this one variety, he would have left to posterity a living monument 
to his genius. Delightfully fragrant. $5.00

pure white with age. Delightful tea rose fragrance. 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 dark 
green foliage. $2.00 
Nick Shaylor (Allison 1931) A most outstanding beauty and one much sought 
after. Double, late, blush or light pink, with occasional red markings. Some
