PAEONIA, continued 
lar. The Paeonia is today without a rival as a hardy garden 
favorite, and naturally so, as no garden plant thrives with as 
little special care and produces so fine a display of gorgeous 
bloom. The great diversity of color and form now obtainable 
very much increases the importance of this plant. 
Our assortment embraces the reliable old and the best 
new varieties.

The Dahlia is one of our special lines and is one of the 
few exceptions to the rule which confines our products to the 
“ hardy ” class. The Dahlia is just now growing in popu- 
larity by leaps and bounds, owing largely to the improved 
varieties of recent introduction, so much more desirable than 
the stiff formal varieties of our mother’s garden. 
Our assortment consists of the best varieties of the lead- 
ing types, such as the Cactus, Decorative, Fancy, Pompon, 
Show and Single. 
For a moderate charge we will take up and store the 
tubers over winter.

The Gladiolus is the best of all our summer-blooming 
plants for yielding cut-flowers. It makes a long season, from 
July to November, and furnishes an abundance of beautiful 
blossoms, which display in countless combinations nearly all 
colors and shades from white and delicate pink, lavender and 
yellow to the richest red, garnet and purple. In addition to 
others we have Groff’s Silver Trophy strain.
