SPLENDID PEONIES Hardy Everywhere 

 "ARISTOCRAT OF THE FLOWERS." 



"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 ple- 

 beian and aristocrat of the Peony 

 family. If you want information 

 on the plant that stands next to 

 the Rose in beauty, that is prac- 

 tically known to the amateur as 

 simply a red, white and pink 

 Peony, then send for "Peonies 

 for Pleasure." 



Festiva Maxima in Full Bloom. 



The wonderful improvement made during recent years in these old-fashioned hardy plants has brought them into re- 

 newed popularity. The gorgeous flowers, which rival the finest Roses in size, form and color, are produced in great abun- 

 dance. After once being planted they require little care and attention, thrive anywhere, and are absolutely hardy even in the 

 coldest climates ; each year after planting they grow into greater value, producing more and more flowers. They are not trou- 

 bled with insect pests. Try some of my fine Peonies, and see what grand flowers they are. Get it out of your head that 

 there are only Red, White and Pink Peonies to illustrate at flowering time. People who visit my field will say, "I have Pink 

 and White Peonies. I desire only Red ones," but when they are shown the Pink and White, they invariably exclaim, "How 

 grand I I have none like them." There is as much difference in Peonies as there is in Roses.
