One of Our Peony Blocks 



Our peony list is not a long one. but it has been made up with great care 

 and with the idea of including only the best and most distinct kinds. We 

 believe we are offering a line-up that is really worth while, an assortment 

 representing the very best out of hundreds of varieties. We give ycu sorts 

 presenting a wide range in color and shade— coming into bloom throughout 

 the entire season. 



Our stock is correct and unmixed, carefully rogued every other day while 

 in bloom. The price is for divisions with three to five eyes— and roots. 



FLORISTS "ATTENTION! 



By making a careful selection, florists may have the predominating colors 

 from the beginning of ihe season right through.
