Herbaceous Peonies 



The Very Best Time to Plant Them is in 

 t, the Fall. 



Peonies, after once being planted, require 

 little-attention and care, thrive almost any- 

 where, 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 thoroughly estab- 

 lished, will take care of themselves, in- 

 creasing in size and beauty every year. 

 Peonies will be shipped as soon as possible 

 after they can be dug — or about Octo- 

 ber 1st.
