General Information 
SHIPPING TIME 
We begin shipping peony roots about September 10th and 
continue until the ground freezes. 
SIZE OF PLANTS 
Prices quoted are for strong three to five eye divisions with 
well balanced root systems. Our divisions are all taken from 
healthy, young plants of the highest quality. 
GUARANTEE 
We guarantee all plants sold by us to be healthy and true 
to name and should any of them prove otherwise, we shall, 
at any time within three years from date of invoice, replace 
such plants without additional charge. 
TERMS 
Cash with order or before shipment. We prepay trans- 
portation charges on all retail orders. 
TIME TO PLANT 
While peonies may be safely planted after September 1st 
and before the ground freezes in the fall, the best time to 
plant is from September 15th to October 15th, as by planting 
them at that time they will make a little root growth before 
winter and most of them will bloom the following spring. 
We like to have our own planting completed by October 
15th if possible. 
CAUTION 
After being transplanted Peonies will very seldom pro- 
duce typical blooms the first season, many fine double vari- 
eties producing only single or semi-double blooms, and it is 
usually not until the third year after planting that the finest 
flowers are produced. Customers planting Peonies should 
remember this and not be disappointed if the blooms do not 
reach their expectations the first year. 
CULTURE 
Nothing will more richly pay for good care and cultiva¬ 
tion than Peonies. In planting, place them so that the top¬ 
most eyes or buds will be about two or two and a half inches
