We are also offering for spring delivery only, pot-grown plants of 
Delphiniums. These plants are the same that we will be using for our own 
planting. To those who have had difficulty in germinating the seed of Del¬ 
phiniums, this is an opportunity to get these young unflowered plants, and thus 
get the initial benefit from them. 
These plants will all bloom from August until frost, giving spikes from 
3 to 4 feet in height and the following year they will be at their best. 
Plants carefully packed and guaranteed to arrive safely, $4.00 per Doz. 
Peonies are perfectly hardy, requiring no protection whatever, even in the 
most severe climate, and once planted, increase in beauty each year. 
Planting—Peonies may be planted any time in the Fall, from September 1st 
until the ground freezes. 
Size of Root—Making a specialty of growing Peonies and Gladiolus our 
progress depends entirely upon the results obtained from our roots and bulbs; 
for this reason we quote prices on 3 to 5 eye, or large divisions only. 
Important! An important point to observe in the planting of Peonies is 
not to plant too deep. The roots should be placed so that the eyes are two 
inches below the surface, and the soil tightly packed about them. 
It will be noticed that we are not quoting any Peonies for less than $1.00 
as we cannot grow, care for our stock, dig, pack, label and supply our customers 
with good, strong plants and make a living profit for less than this amount. 
Discounts—On all orders amounting to $10.00 or more a discount of 10% 
will be allowed when cash accompanies the order. 
The figures that follow the variety name denote the rating given by the 
American Peony Society. The valuation is based on a possible score of ten. 
Where no rating is shown, the variety is too new to have had sufficient votes 
to be properly judged.
