JAPANESE IRISES 
The Jananese Irises are perhaps the most showy of all, and are most valuable 
in the garden because they blossom after others have finished flowering. The 
broad flat flowers, some of them 10 inches across, in their beautiful clear colors 
and pastel shades, add distinct character to any garden planting. Their principal 
requirement is an abundance of water about the roots a month before and a month 
after blooming. They like full sun. We present the following proven sorts.

TREE PEONIES 
(PiEONIA ARBOREA) 
Including the Newest in Double Yellows 
Generally speaking the Tree Peony differs from the herbaceuos Peony in that 
the stems of the Tree Peony are woody and the plant will attain a height of over 
5 feet. 
Tree Peonies in general bloom earlier than the Chinese Peonies and they are 
very free-flowering. Amongst the Tree Peonies we also find colors unknown in the 
Chinese Clases. 
We have studied the unusual Tree Peonies for a good many years and the 
collection listed on these pages represents perhaps the finest assortment available
