HERBACEOUS PEONIES 
1 hrifty perennials, with verv large, showy Howers and a great variety of colors. No 
class of plants is better adapted for general cultivation than this one. as they are not par¬ 
ticular as to soil or position. 'Fhey do exceedingly well in partial shade, will give grand 
results banked in front of shrubbery, along a driveway, mixed with otlier tall-growing 
plants like phloxes, etc., or planted in masses by themselves. '^Fhey are great feeders, so 
the bed or border for Peonies should be made deep and ricli by spading in a cjuantity of 
well-decayed cow manure 2 feet deep or more, mixing it thoroughly with the soil. The 
crowns should not be [)lanted more than 2 inches beneath the surface of the soil. Each fall 
put a good covering of manure over the beds, which will be all the covering or mulching 
needed through the winter. For the greater perfection of bloom they require an abundance 
of moisture, and some growers recommend liejuid manure applied to the soil just before and 
during the blooming season, which is the middle of May to July, and when properly cared 
for will thrive for 20 years or more.
