JAPANESE TREE PEONIES. 



The Tree Paeonies [P. Moutan) differ from the herbaceous 

 varieties in their growth, which is in the form of a dwarf shrub; 

 they are equally free-flowering, and commence blooming about 

 three weeks earlier than the double herbaceous sorts, and while 

 also perfectly hardy they are benefited by slight protection through 

 the winter. The varieties enumerated below have been selected 

 from a large collection, and will be found very interesting.
