PEONY PRICE LIST FOR 1935 
GROUP 1 
In this group which follows we have 
Placed about sixty outstanding flowers, all of 
which are suitable for average garden con¬ 
ditions. By this, we mean that they have 
sufficiently strong stems to stand up under 
almost any circumstances, and that they will 
be satisfactory to you for growing in your 
garden for garden use, as distinguished from 
cut-flower or exhibition use. Here you will 
find a representative lot of all of the three 
colors of peonies and some in each season 
of bloom. 
We recommend this group to our friends 
and assure them that they may make a se¬ 
lection from it without fear of getting flow¬ 
ers which will not meet garden requirements. 
You can rely on each and every one of these 
plants to be good in your particular garden. 
The group is further divided into three 
lots, the first lot selling at $1.00 per division 
the second at $1.50, the third at $2.50. Iri 
this way we feel selections can be made 
quickly and easily and the purchaser may 
make his selection from the price class he 
desires with the least effort, but with assur¬ 
ance that he is getting the type of flower 
that he wants.

GROUP 2 
In this section we have grouped most of 
the newer and scarcer peonies, together with 
a few of the older ones, all of them high 
rated floweys, but which have certain charac¬ 
teristics which do not make them particu¬ 
larly desirable for general garden use. We 
refer to such flowers as Tourangelle and 
several others, which while very beautiful 
when used as cut-flowers, do not stand up 
because of the weak stems and are entirely 
unadapted to the garden where they will 
have to withstand weather conditions. The 
¥^OR our 1935 price list we are continuing the practice we started last year of 
X dividing peonies into different groups instead of listing them alphabetically. 
This listing last year met with the approval of most of our customers. The flowers 
are listed in this way in the belief that it will help many to get just the kinds of 
flowers they want for their gardens. Some varieties are best suited for garden 
display, others are choice exhibition flowers and some are good for general use. 
There is one division of new and rare varieties. A complete explanation precedes 
each group. 
We have not given lengthy descriptions of the varieties as most of them, with 
the exception of the newest, can be found in the Manual of the American Peony 
Society, a book which should be in the library of every peony lover. Our Gate House 
Store can supply it at the publisher’s price of $3 postpaid. Or we shall be glad at 
any time to give detailed descriptions of any of these peonies if you write requesting 
the information. 
The prices quoted in this list are for strong, healthy five-eye Auglaize Gardens 
divisions with generous, well-balanced root systems, cut from three-year-old plants. 
We can also supply one-year-old plants at the same price if you prefer this size. 
Prices on large plants for immediate effect will be quoted upon request. 
The arrangement in this list is as follows: First, the rating as given by the 
American Peony Society. Second, the name of the variety. Next comes the color, 
then the season of bloom, early, mid-season or late. 
flowers of this group vary in price, and in¬ 
clude many which are very scarce and con¬ 
sequently higher in price and which have 
not been rated by the American Peony So¬ 
ciety. This is a group which with the excep¬ 
tion of the exhibition flower varieties should 
be considered by the specialist, and would 
not interest most home gardeners, at least 
not until such time as there is sufficient 
stock of these in propagation that their price 
becomes lower.

GROUP 3 
In this group we have included a group of 
some of the older flowers. All of these are 
nice flowers, but they have been on the mar¬ 
ket for many years and the stock is large 
and consequently the price of the flowers in 
this group is lower than those in either one 
of the others. The flowers in this group are 
not of as fine quality and very few of them 
are as highly rated as those in Groups 1 
and 2, so we do not advise that you depend 
upon this group exclusively if you want a 
fine attractive garden effect. A few of them 
should be used to fill in if you find you need 
some extra varieties, or because of their 
low price they can be purchased in con¬ 
siderable quantity to use as cut flowers if 
’ 15.00 
you 
need something of this character.
