THE FLOWERS 
FOR EVERYBODY 
The old-fashioned red Peonies—or "Pineys" as some people 
call them—have been marvelously improved. Now we have 
more colors, more forms, more flowers, and with some of them 
we have more fragrance. Peonies are at home in every garden, 
and need little care. Set the roots about 2 inches deep, use 
bone meal, see that they have plenty of water during blooming¬ 
time—that's the whole story if you set Hillenmeyer's Peony 
plants.
