SELECT HERBACEOUS PEONIES 



A noble flower, almost rivaling the rose in brilliancy of color and perfection of bloom, and the 

 Rhododendron in stately growth. The first point in their favor is hardiness. It may be truly said of 

 them that they are " hardy as an oak." In the severest climate the plants require no other protection 

 than that which they afford themselves. Then their vigorous habit and healthy growth, freedom from 

 all diseases and insects are important arguments in favor of their cultivation. Each succeeding year 

 adds to their size and beauty. The foliage is rich and glossy and of a beautiful deep green color, thus 

 rendering the plants very ornamental even when out of flower. The newer varieties produce very large, 

 handsome, regularly formed cupped blooms resembling large roses. No other flower is so well adapted 

 for large, showy bouquets. The Paeony may be planted either singly on the lawn or in borders. Where 

 the lawn is extensive a large bed makes a grand show, surpassing a bed of Rhododendrons. It is really 

 a flower for the million. They blossom early in June. Our collection has been made with great care and 

 includes the best and most distinct varieties.
