A Portion of 
Our Planting at 
Blossom Time 
Your S uccess Means 
Our Success 
I T IS with a great deal of pleasure we again send you 
our Peony list. While we have not seen the fruition of 
all our hopes and plans, we are deeply grateful for the 
success that we have had, and we come to you at this time 
with the feeling that in the very near future conditions will 
tend to become more stabilized. 
We are exerting every effort to produce the very best 
stock that is possible to grow, and in our twenty-nine years’ 
experience we believe we have never had better stock to 
offer than we are offering this season. We feel sure that you 
will be more than pleased with the stock we will send you. 
Samuel Hill, a new single peony of exquisite beauty re¬ 
sembling a huge apple blossom, blooms are often eight to 
nine inches in diameter. This is one of the finest Peonies we 
have ever introduced. It blooms in mid-season. 
You are invited to visit our garden at blooming time. 
See several acres of beautiful blossoms from pure white to 
darkest red. The new Barbur Boulevard, S. W. Pacific 
Highway, runs through our planting 2^ miles, S. W. of 
city limits. Also visit our showroom at our residence, three 
blocks north and one block east of West Portland School. 
We want your good will and are willing to earn it, 
therefore we want you not only to be satisfied, but so well 
pleased that we will get inquiries from your friends, saying 
Berneche’s peony roots were recommended by you. 
We believe a spoken word of praise from a satisfied cus¬ 
tomer is the best advertisement possible.
