Plantings 



Planted at intervals in the 

 border with other flowers, or grouped 

 by themselves, peonies are usually 

 more effective than as single speci- 

 mens on a lawn. The blossoms are 

 more gorgeous than those of any 

 other perennial. Many varieties 

 are deliciously rose-fragrant. 



Peonies need deep rich soil and 

 plenty of water during the flowering 

 season. Cover the crowns with about 

 two inches of soil when planting the 

 roots.
