Paeonia Suffruticosa [Arborea] - Tree Peony 
The Tree Peony is really one of the finest plants available for 
the garden or the conservatory. It is quit© hardy, and does 
well under the simplest treatment. It flourishes in the most 
astonishing manner, bearing blossoms from 6 to 8 inches across, 
which increase every year in beauty and size. They are a grand 
addition to the garden, as they do not die down to the ground 
like the herbaceous sorts, but make fine bushes 3 to 4 feet in 
height, covered every spring with elegant flowers.
