I will furnish 25 choice Peonies, 
geous display 01 powers in meir 
season is very effective, and the 
dark green foliage at all times is 
attractive. What better frontage 
for shrubberies, or in fact for any 
large plantation, than Pteonias? 
They are also well suited to mass¬ 
ing in beds by themselves. Give 
the borders or beds a deep and 
thorough spading j yes, trench the 
ground, working in a liberal sup¬ 
ply of the best decomposed manure, 
and again a top-dressing of the 
same in spring. Avoid planting 
too deep: an inch or so of soil over 
the buds is sufficient. Don’t expect 
too much of them the first year. 
They are a little slow in their 
growth, but after a couple of sea¬ 
sons, if they have been well cared 
for, you will have no reason for 
regretting the extra pains in set¬ 
ting. They bloom in June.
