Double Herbaceous Peonies 
There are many reasons why Peonies deserve the high place they have among garden plants. They are 
extra hardy and after the toughest of winters the herbaceous types never fail to push their pink shoots through 
the ground at their appointed time. As large as a small shrub, and with attractive, healthy foliage, the plants 
are good to look at both before and after bloom. About all they ask is good, rich loamy soil and an annual top¬ 
dressing of bonemeal or thoroughly decayed manure.

Oriental Poppies 
Spectacular and graceful, the Oriental Poppies give that brilliant touch so necessary in many gardens in May 
and June. The large, crinkled, single and semi-double flowers in the modern range of colors lend themselves to 
color blending far beyond the scope of the old types. 
Fall planting is best, and strong field-grown plants, given reasonably rich soil and a light winter covering, will 
produce strong flowering plants next spring.
