Peonies 93 
A Border of the Lovely New Peony, “Liberty Bond.” 
Isbell’s Magnificent Peonies The a nd th\ r MmioLTre Uon 
The Peony is a noble flower, almost, rivaling the rose in coloring, perfection of bloom and fragrance. It is perfectly 
hardy without protection; is not troubled with insect pests or diseases, and once planted takes care of itself, increas¬ 
ing in size and profusion of bloom each year. They last a lifetime and longer. 
The roots you get from us are field grown, large and healthy, showing 3 to 5 good eyes. 
Plant in Spring, in well enriched soil; bone meal is the best fertilizer. Set the roots with crown or eyes covered 
not more than 2 or 3 inches. An open, sunny location is best. PLEASE NOTE OUR VERY LOW PRICES ON BEST
