Peonies, “‘Aristocrats of the Flowers” pion 
‘STANDARDIZED ACCORDING TO THE AUTHORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEONY SOCIETY {0 © 
Peonies today show a wonderful improvement over former years. There is 
something of true magnificence about this aristocrat of the flowers, and in large 
mass planting they produce an effect that you remember—great, gorgeous blossoms, 
daintily dyed with the most exquisite shades, from white to the deepest reds. They 
are deliciously fragrant, and for effective decorations, especially on a large 
scale, are unsurpas ssed. Bloom several weeks in the spring. Height, 2 to 3 feet. 2 
CuLTuRE.—They will grow anywhere, reasonably speaking, though they Siig 
do best in rich, deep soil and a sunny position, but thrive in partial shade. : 
Plenty of water during the growing season is an added stimulus. They q™ > 
require no protection and are not troubled with insects or disease.
