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 

 blooin 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.
