J. T. LOVETT, INC., LITTLE SILVER, N. J. 



LOVETT'S PREMIER PEONIES 



"Peony, The Queen of Hardy Perennials!" The title is a just one; long may she reign su- 

 preme. In addition to the imperial beauty of the flowers of those we offer, many are as frag- 

 rant as an American Beauty rose. All are absolutely hardy, even in the most exposed positions 

 at the far north. 



Autumn is the best season of the year for planting peonies. They will be ready for shipment 

 by September first; but not earlier.
