These are well-known and popular ornaments of 

 the garden, great favorites everywhere, and very 

 justly so, since, for brilliant display of colors during 

 the months of May and June, there are few flowers 

 indeed to equal them. The flowers have been vastly 

 improved in recent years, so that in the best varieties 

 of the present day, such as offered below, we find in- 

 tensely double flowers of immense size, in the loveliest 

 shades of pure color imaginable, and they are pro- 

 duced in wonderful profusion. Every garden and lawn 

 should have a bed of Pasonias, so delightful to behold, 

 so useful for cutting, and which, once planted, will 

 increase in beauty and value from year to year. The 

 varieties I offer below have been selected from my 

 assortment of over 200 varieties, from the celebrated 

 Kelway stock, of England ; all choice varieties, and 

 many of them prize winners. They may all be relied 

 upon for profuse showy bloom, great hardiness and 

 easy culture. My collection of Pgeonias was awarded 

 Certificate of Merit by The American Institute for 

 best display.

 tural Society of England.
