Book (1928) Page(s) 57. A List of Fifty of the Best Inexpensive Varieties White Varieties Duchess de Nemours (Calot). 8.1. White. A beautiful early almost pure white with shadings of green at the base of the petals. Blossom cup-shaped with marked crown effect. Duchess de Nemours, although a comparatively old variety, is unexcelled for beauty of form, purity of color, and all-around general goodness. We think it should be in every planting, but since it is an old variety we seldom list it with our collections as most people who have ever made a purchase of peonies already have it. A splendid cut flower.
