PEONIES 
You will be delighted with our Peonies, as they grow 
and flower in your garden. There are four diftinft groups 
of peonies, differing in formation of roots, habits of 
growth and time of flowering. We lift them below in 
order of their flowering season. 
TENUIFOLIA GROUP, commonly called the Fringe Leaf Peony. 
Comes into bloom the earliest of all or about a week to ten days before the 
Officinalis varieties. The foliage is finely cut and of a vivid shining green 
color giving the plant the appearance of a bushy evergreen. The buds show 
red when flower Stems ate 8 to 10 inches tall and continue to grow in size 
and beauty until flowers are fully opened with Stems 20 to 25 inches in 
height. Flowers are intensely double and of a very pleasing shade of dark 
red. The roots of the Tenuifolia group and of the Officinalis group are in 
form of clusters of tubers the shape of Sweet Potatoes. Plants are very 
scarce and only a few nurseries have them.
