DREER'S Glorious Peonies 



Plant Early for Best Results 



Peonies are one of the loveliest and most sweet-scented of flowers and, at the same time, one of 

 the easiest to grow and care for. Peonies are not particular as to position; they grow in full sun 

 or in partial shade where other flowers do not thrive. In fact, shade tends to make the colors 

 more intense and to prolong the blooming season. 



Enrich the soil with cow manure before planting. Do not plant too deep. Only 2 inches of soil 

 should cover the "eyes." When the buds are about to open, give a supplemental feeding of liquid 

 manure or Hyponex. 



When ordering, make your selection for different blooming times as noted in descriptions of 

 various varieties.
