Beautiful Peonies 
Chinese Peonies are very desirable on account of 
their larg’e size, fine colors and profuse blooming’. 
They are perfectly hardy, and will succeed in any 
ground unless so wet the water stands on the sur¬ 
face in the winter and spring. May be planted 
either in the autumn or spring. Avoid planting too 
deeply, as this is often the cause of shy blooming; 
2 inches of soil over the crown (eyes) being suf¬ 
ficient.
