STONYCROFT GARDENS 
List and prices of 
DOUBLE AND SINGLE 
HERBACEOUS PAEONIES 
For Fall of 1906 and Spring of 1907 
N addition to this list, I have growing in my grounds many 
new varieties imported from different parts of the world. 
T*hey are the latest French and English novelties, and the 
best of the Japanese varieties. The French Paeonies are by 
the best known horticulturists, such as Crousse, Calot, Dessert, 
Lemoine and others. These French hybrids which have flowered in 
the last four years are very fine, and marvels of beauty. The 
Japanese Paeonies are both single and double, and more odd in form 
and color than those of other countries. 
My aim is to supply as good Paeonies as there are in the world, 
and to keep introducing each year the best Continental novelties. 
In 1904, the Massachusetts Horticultural Society awarded me 
First Class Certificates of Merit on Paeony Lady Alexandra Duff, by 
Kelway; Marguarite Gerard, by Crousse; and Mine. Emile Lemoine, 
by Lemoine. 
In 1905, the same Society awarded me First Class Certificates of 
Merit on Germain Bigot and Mine, de Treyeran, and Honorable 
Mention on M. Martin Cahuzac, all by Dessert. 
In 1906 the same Society awarded me a first class ctf. on Therese 
by A. Dessert. 
I do not enter any flowers for prizes. There is glory enough for 
me in having an old and experienced gardner say : “This is the most 
interesting table in the Exhibition.” 
The “Horticulture” said of my 1905 table: “The best display- 
one that has probably never been equalled in any previous shows here 
— was that of E. J. Shaylor.” 
The “Florists Review” said of my exhibit in 1906 “E. J. Shay lor ’s 
collection of 200 varieties, comprising as it did so many fine novelties 
wasla centre of attraction. Mr. Shaylor has spent a lot of money on 
Paeonies and has one of the finest collections in the country."
