'% Peonies 



-"jfir ■ . .T * * / Are entirely hardy, take care 



of themselves, never fail to 

 bloom. You no doubt know 

 the old varieties of Peonies, but 

 the new varieties we offer will be 

 revelation. The best time to 

 transplant Peonies are the months of 

 September and October. 

 "PEONIES FOR PLEASURE" 

 This book of " Peonies for Pleasure " gives information on 

 Peony history; soil and plants to use; how and when to plant; 

 fertilizers and how to apply, and describes the most extensive 

 planting of really valuable Peonies ever gathered together under the sun; 

 describes the old and the new, as well as the plebeian and aristocrat of the 

 Peony family. If you want information on the plant that stands next to the 

 Rose in beauty, that is practically known to the amateur as simply a red, 

 white and pink Peony, then send for " Peonies for pleasure." Write today.

Evergreens 

 Plant them in August 



HAPPILY, with evergreens, planting is not limited to Spring 

 time only. Late Summer and early Fall are equally 

 fortunate. For years, nurserymen have been successfully 

 doing considerable of their nursery evergreen transplanting in 

 the Fall. 



So don't hesitate to order of us, for August or September 

 planting, the evergreens you should have. 



Grown in this sturdy eastern climate ; every one of our trees 

 has that vigor and backbone so necessary for successful plant- 

 ing. They thrive in various parts of the country, where trees 

 grown under less fortunate conditions and care, are apt to be 

 either discouragingly slow of growth, or fail entirely. 



Packing done with unusual care. Shipments prompt.
