GORGEOUS PEONIES 
ALL 
POSTPAID 
The Peony ranks among the most popular flowers. The blooms come out very early and are 
seldom attacked by disease. Our roots are extra large. The most popular perennial for our home 
flower garden. Being perfectly hardy, one planting will do for a lifetime with suitable cultiva¬ 
tion. Is strictly hardy and does well in most any location; however, responds readily to good 
rich, deep soil in an open, sunny position. Be careful not to plant too deep; the best is for 
crown to be about 2 inches below the surface. Peonies seldom bloom the first season. Ground 
should be spaded deep and well enriched, as suggested in our free leaflet. 
Don’t worry about the black ants that often gather on the buds, they are seeking the honey 
which exudes from the bud, and do no harm. If the stalk wilts, remove it to check the fungus 
from spreading.
