Hardy^ Herbaceous Flowers for Fall Planting 



Herbaceous Peonies 



The very best time to plant them 

 is in the Fall 



Peonies, after once being 

 planted, require little atten- 

 tion and care, thrive almost 

 anywhere, and are absolutely 

 hardy everywhere. They do 

 best in good, rich soil and an 

 open, sunny position, but this 

 is not absolutely necessary. 

 During the growing season 

 they like an occasional, liberal 

 supply of water. They are 

 not troubled with insect pests, 

 and, after once becoming thor- 

 oughly established, will take 

 care of themselves, increasing 

 in size and beauty every year. 

 Peonies will be shipped as 

 soon as possible after they can 

 be dug — or about Oct. 1st.
