Dreer's Choice Double Herbaceous Peonies 



With the present quarantine in force against the Importation of nearly all kinds of bulbs, roots and plants, it will only be a short 

 time when there will be a shortage of this class of stock and prices will naturally advance. 



We are fortunate in having this season the largest stock of Peonies that we have yet produced, all in the finest commercial varieties, 

 which we offer in strong divisions of three to five eyes each and in stock that is true to name. Ready for delivery after September 26th.
