During winter and spring it would be difficult to conceive anything more beautiful in the flower garden 
than the graceful bell-shaped flowers of S. g rand ijlor um. S. striatum emits a hawthorn fragrance, morning and 
evening, during summer, and is a good plant to naturalize in woodland walks.

HARDY CHINESE P^EONIAS. 
It would be impossible to conceive of a more decorative herbaceous border plant than the Chinese Pieony. 
It is of stately growth, with a profusion of large handsome flowers, the colours ranging from the purest white to 
the most intense crimson- magenta, and, like the Rose, all are more or less sweet-scented. A bed of these 
Pseonias, associated with Lilies and Gladiolus, gives a matchless effect. <-1 *
