Do You Know 
FARR’S PEONIES? 
book “Farr’s Hardy Plant Specialties,’’ which aside from describing ac¬ 
curately the hundreds of varieties which go to make up perhaps the most 
complete collection of peonies in existence, tells you how I have been able 
to jearn about these beautiful plants during the many Junes I have lived 
among them. You will enjoy the story of how a hobby has grown and 
grown until it has become so much a business that happily I may be able 
to give myself over to the enjoyment of it for the rest of my life. 
If the soft, iridescent beauty of the Irises makes you a dreamer of “far 
away things,” that of the peonies, rich with the warmth of their glowing 
colors, intoxicating in the delightful fragrance of their great big flowers, 
tills you with the joy of life and the glory of June. Fortunately for me 
the Irises and Peonies do not come together, so I can revel in both to my 
heart’s content. 
Perhaps you are one of the many thousands who do not yet know the 
beauty of the modern Peony or who know not the lure of tjlie Iris; if so, 
you have missed much and should send at once for my book—it’s free.
