TOTTY’S HARDY PERENNIALS, MADISON, NEW JERSEY 
FIELD OF P/EONIES 
HERBACEOUS PAEONIES 
The best known of this type of plant is, of course, the Officinalis. Cast-iron in their 
hardiness, blooming equally well, north, south, east and west, in this country no other 
flower is so adaptable and so satisfactory. A good, rich soil, open, sunny position, and 
plenty of water during their growth, is all they need. When planting, place the roots so 
that the crowns are barely covered with soil. So treated, Pseonies will go ahead and give 
entire satisfaction year after year.
