(1915) Page(s) 41. Single Peonies The following is a selection of only the choicest kinds. Mostly raised by Kelway & Son. Albiflora, the Bride. Syn. La Fiancee (Dessert 1902); also Snowflake (Kelway). Very large; pure white. Tall, vigorous grower, free bloomer, very early. Finest single white. Distinct from the primitive species Albiflora, being the taller grower, much larger, finer flower. Identical with the single white sent out by Dessert as La Fiancee. I prefer, however to retain the name The Bride, to avoid confusion with the double white variety originated by Lemoine in 1898. $2.
