LYCORBUS SQUAMIGERA OR “MAGIC LILY OF JAPAN”— 
The foliage resembles that of the Iris, but completely dies 
down in midsummer. Then a little later on the flower stems 
arise, Phoenix-like,, from the earth to height of about 3 feet, 
and are soon surmounted by 5 or 6 pink blossoms. A great 
novelty and perfectly hardy. Medium size bulbs 75 cents;

PEONIES 
We have growing in field more than 200 varieties of peonies and have 
30 kinds in cold storage for spring planting. 
The bulk of our sales are to people who drive in for many miles 
around to see the peonies “face to face” when they are in bloom, 
and order for fall delivery. 
However, experience has proven that peonies may be, and are, success¬ 
fully planted in the spring while plants are dormant, hence, the 
cold storage. 
Prices are for 3 to 5 eye divisions.
