PEONIES 
Peonies are among the most gorgeous plants that can be grown in a garden. Given a deep, rich soil and a sunny situation they 
will thrive anywhere. A mulch of manure each fall will help to maintain them. Plant the roots 2 to 3 inches below the surface of 
the ground. Strong divisions with 3 to 5 eyes, and plenty of roots, and larger size than usually secured from the growers.
