DOUBLE PEONIES 
We specialize in growing peonies. Our 
plants are young, free from disease, and 
blooming size. This means that most 
always our large divisions will bloom 
the first year. Peonies should be planted 
in full sun exposure, and the eyes should 
be covered, when planting, with not more 
than one inch of dirt. We do not recom¬ 
mend the use of manure when planting.
