52 A LITTLE GARDEN THE YEAR ROUND 



such varieties as Czarina (Rose), Festiva 

 Maxima (White), Victoire Modeste Guerin 

 (Rose), Duke of Wellington (White), Deli- 

 catissima (Blush), Alba Sulphurea (White), 

 and Humei Carnea (Blush) are recommended. 



Peonies should not be disturbed from year to 

 year but their undivided clumps left to develop 

 vigorous stalks. One sees the finest Peony 

 blossoms on those plants which have not been 

 moved about or which have not been removed 

 and replaced in the process of dividing. Of 

 this our old-time garden-makers were cogni- 

 zant as the wonderful Peony clumps in their 

 gardens that have come down to our keeping 

 attest. 



I find the following varieties of Peonies very 

 dependable and free blooming: Albatre, Cour- 

 onne D'Or, Festiva Maxima (white). La 

 Tulipe (pale rose to white), Claire Dubois 

 (pink), Floral Treasure (rose), Madame 

 ifimile Lemoine (white), Livingstone (pink), 

 Madame £mile Galle (white). Marguerite 

 Gerard (pink), Monsieur Jules Elie (pink), 

 Augustin D'Hour, Felix Crousse, La Grange, 

 M. Barrel, M. Krelage and M. Martin Cahu- 

 zac (red).
