It opens a delicate pink, but almost immediately fades to white. While the bloom is very large it is not heavy and its splendid stems are able to carry the blooms perfectly. The foliage of the plant is beautiful and we believe that this variety is worthy to bear the name of the man who knew Peonies better than anyone else we have ever met, and who was such a close observer that he could almost invariably tell the name of a Peony by its foliage, even when the blooming season was past. We hope this variety will continue to display the same excellent quality we have observed in it. $25.00
