TREE PEONIES 
Our Stock of these splendid Shrubby Peonies is the largest 
In America 
The Japanese varieties are the most beautiful, but the most diffi¬ 
cult to grow on account of suckeritig. The European varieties are 
grafted on herbaceous roots and do not sucker.

HERBACEOUS PEONIES 
MOUTAN TREE PEONY 
(Ready in September) 
It gives us great pleasure to see the increasing popularity ol 
Peonies, for there is nothing more deserving, and when the merit 
and beauty of the newer varieties are known every garden will con¬ 
tain 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 varieties. In no other flower has there been such a marked improvement, and they actually surpass the finest rose 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 planted in August or September will bloom the following season. 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 he bad next season.
