CURRIE BROTHERS CO., MILWAUKEE, WIS 



MODERN PEONIES 



The most popular of all hardy herbaceous plants, admired by every- 

 body, and so easily grown that no one with even the most limited 

 garden space should be without one or more. They are perfectly hardy, 

 thriving in almost any soil either in the open or light shade. Well 

 enriched loam, however, suits them best, carefully avoiding an over 

 abundance of fresh manure close to the roots. Beware of too deep 

 planting. Make the hole deep and wide enough to accommodate the 

 roots, covering the crown with not more than two inches of soil. 



Hardy Lilies;
