Dingee Hardy Peonies 
Of all the flowers in the Hardy Garden the Peony is easily 
recognized as the Queen—in fact, it vies with the Rose for the 
title in many ways, for while in bloom it is without question 
the most glorious object in the garden. Once Peonies are 
planted they last for a life time. They stand the severest 
winters without the slightest protection. Especially fine for 
single specimens and cemetery planting. After blooming their 
charm lies in the beauty of the foliage, for even when not in 
bloom the Peony plant is decorative in the extreme and well 
worthy of a prominent place in the garden. 
We offer only the cream of the many hundred varieties. 
Don’t buy the cheap kinds. They require just as much 
care, but don’t produce the blooms.
