If you are a true blue and enthusiastic lover of 
Peonies, perhaps you will permit us the privilege of 
explaining why you should 
PURCHASE YOUR ROOTS FROM 
PEONY SPECIALISTS 
IT MEANS JUST THIS FOR YOU: 
The best sorts in existence, and ONLY the best—No 
perplexing and endless lists of varieties to ‘‘puzzle 
over.’ Many of the sorts are practically identical, and 
we have done the ‘‘puzzling’’—the sorting and sifting. 
Every root guaranteed true to name—We send you 
what you pay for—not something more or less like it, 
under the name. 
Vigorous High-Grade Roots—Our liberally grown stock 
—‘‘Quality Stock,’’ grown for discriminating customers. 
These important features are dwelt upon at greater length in 
OUR HANDSOME ANNUAL FALL CATALOG — JUST 
READY. It is really a Peony manual, and its list of varieties a ‘‘stan- 
dard of excellence.’’ It contains much new matter this year, and—if you’re really interested—a 
revelation or two worth your knowing. 
Remember also that fall is the ONLY time to plant Peonies. 
also—if you insist. We do not—for your own sake. 
May we send you the catalog? We think you'll agree it’s worth having.

High Grade Seeds, Bulbs and Plants 
5 UNION STREET BOSTON, MASS. 
Set out hardy plants early in the autumn—they will 
get started before winter and do finely for you next 
summer. 
Lilies, Tulips, Hyacinths, Daffodils and many other 
varieties for fall planting are described in Horsford’s 
Autumn Supplement. Write early for free copy. 
Home Grown Lilies 
Most of the lily bulbs sold in this country are from 
stores, having been dug, dried, and roots removed be- 
fore shipping from Europe or Japan, which reduces 
vitality. Fresh bulbs right from the beds they have 
been grown in, with roots and firm outside scales, give 
better results first year. 
Horsford’s Autumn Supplement enables you to get 
your bulbs all planted long before the imported bulbs 
are in, Tulips, Daffodils, Crocuses, &c., give better re- 
turns when planted early in the North than with late 
planting. They have time to make their root growth 
before cold weather. Orders filled from fresh bulbs 
as long as stocks last. Send for free Supplement.
