SPECIAL AND IMPORT PRICES FOR SPRING OF 1905

JAPANESE TREE PEONIES, continued 
older before they bloom. There is a limited supply of Japanese 
varieties grown on their own roots which are the most desirable of 
all, but they are quite expensive. 
I have a set of Japanese water-color drawings of these Peonies, 
which will be sent for examination on receipt of twenty-five cents, 
to cover postage. These drawings must be returned, but if Peonies 
are ordered the amount sent for postage will be allowed on the 
price of the Peonies.

MOUTAN TREE PEONY 
HERBACEOUS PEONIES 
It gives us great pleasure to see the increasing popularity of Peonies, for there is nothing more deserving, and when the merit and 
beauty of the newer varieties are known every garden will contain a large collection. Like the Irishman’s whiskey, all varieties of Peonies 
are good, even the commonest old-fashioned sorts, but there is no language to describe the glorious beauty of the finest of the newer varie¬ 
ties. In no flower has there been such a marked improvement, and they actually surpass the finest roses in size, form and coloring, and 
their ease of culture and extreme hardiness are too well known to enlarge upon. Always having a keen appreciation of these superb flowers, 
we have for years collected all the varieties obtainable in the world and now have the largest collection of varieties and the most extensive 
stock in America. Peonies can be planted any time during the fall and spring. Of many varieties offered in the following list, we can 
supply large undivided clumps -at from three to five times the prices quoted, prices depending upon how many salable plants the clump 
would make if divided. By planting these undivided clumps a fine display of flowers can be had next season.
