 the two countries, Holland and America. The color 

 is one of the most distinct of the Chinensis type— 

 a brilliant scarlet — a color almost unknown in the 

 Paeony. 75 cts. each, S7.50 per doz. Quantity limited.

Paeonias 



PAEONIAS OFFICINALIS 



This is among the hardiest and most popular species 

 of the extensive Paeonia family, and is one of the com- 

 monest to be found in gardens, and the first to flower ; 

 also very sweet-scented. The varieties offered below 

 are the most typical, and beautiful for either massing 

 in borders or as individual specimens. 

 Rubra plena. Deep crimson ; can be forced for 



Easter. 15 cts. each, S1.50 per doz., $10 per 100. 

 Alba mutabilis. White. 20 cts. each, $1.75 per doz., 



$12 per 100. 



Rosea. Rose: also a good forcer. 15 cts. each, $1.50 

 per doz., $10 per 100. 



JAPANESE TREE PAEONIAS 



Tree Paeonias, unlike the Chinese and Officinalis 

 types, do not die down to the ground each year. They 

 make a hard-wooded growth, and in time become quite 

 large shrubs. The flowers range in color from pure 

 white to the darkest shade of purple, including all the 

 shades of crimson and pink. Double and semi-double 

 varieties, in 12 sorts, specially selected for me by a 

 friend in Japan, consisting of the best varieties in com- 

 merce. 75 cts. each, set of 12 varieties for $7.50, $60 

 per 100.
