Single Japanese and Chinese Paeonias 
A type not very generally known, but awakening great interest and 
enthusiasm. The opened flowers are of extra wide spread, with one or 
more layers of broad guard petals which act as a cup to the mounted 
center. In place of the pollen-bearing stamens, the stamens and an¬ 
thers are greatly enlarged into narrow, thick, twisted petaloids of 
various colors, forming a dense cushion.

garden. It is quite hardy, and does well under the simplest treatment. 
It flourishes in the most astonishing manner, bearing blossoms from 6 
to 8 inches across, which increase every year in beauty and size. They 
are a grand addition to the garden, as they do not die down to the

height, covered every spring with elegant flowers. Pot plants may be 
sent and transplanted any time.
