Few hardy herbaceous plants are so suited to any position in 
garden or ground as the Paeony. The gorgeous display of flowers 
in their season is very effective, and the dark green foliage at all 
times is attractive. What better frontage for shrubberies or, 
in fact, for any large plantation, than Paeonies? They 
are also well suited to massing in beds by themselves. 
Give the borders or beds a deep and thorough spading; yes, 
trench the ground, working in a liberal supply of the best de- 
composed manure, anil again a top-dressing of the same in the 
spring. Avoid planting too deep; an inch or so of soil over the 
bud is sufficient. Don't expect too much of them the first 
year. They are a little slow in their growth, but after a couple 
of seasons, if they have been well cared for, you will have no 
reason for regretting the extra pains in setting.
