"Some single Peonies, 
like great wild roses with 
hearts of gold, should 
certainly be included in 
your collection."—Prof. 
A. P. Saunders in Garden 
Magazine. 
Select for a Month of Bloom 
Our collection is the result of a quarter century’s devotion to 
the regal Peony; only the choicest varieties have been retained, 
yet the range of season, color, form and fragrance is amazing. 
We welcome visitors. Many come to make their selections 
while the Peonies are in the height of bloom, June 5 - 15 . In 
any case you will want our Peony catalogue with its helpful 
chart for securing a month of continuous bloom. Gives rating, 
and detailed description of hundreds of choice varieties. Also 
Irises and other Perennials. Write to-day.

grance of bloom, in hardiness and vigor of growth, 
and freedom from insect pests, Peonies are unsur¬ 
passed by any flowers. 
June is the month to select the Peonies you admire 
and order for autumn shipment. Come to Wyomissing 
in Peony-time, and get acquainted with the hundreds 
of varieties growing here. If you cannot come send

Society, with a number of novelties and rare varieties 
of merit. “Better Plants by Farr” will be sent on re¬ 
quest to any Peony grower.
