MONO hardy perenial plants the Peony holds a very high 
^Vplaee. Their large, gorgeous flowers, brone in abundance on 
strong, long stems, with the beautiful dark green glossy foli¬ 
age, add a wealth to the color of the garden which not even the rose 
can give. 
Their culture is simple. Plant in any good rich soil, well worked, 
in open sun or partially shaded position. The crowns should be 
covered with about two inches of soil. Do not plant too deep, as 
deep planting is often the cause of scan tv flowering.
