EXTRISTRONG PEONIES 
In offering the following short list, we have tried to include 
only the most reliable and popular varieties. Many new ones 
are introduced every year and. as they are proved good we will 
add them to our list. The high prices asked for new peonies, 
as well as new gladiolus, dahlias, iris and so on does not nec¬ 
essarily mean that they are better than old ones but that they 
are scarce and not available in large quantities. As soon as 
they become plentiful, they will have to stand on their own mer¬ 
its; they will either supercede other varieties or pass from exist- 
ance, as, indeed, many do before becoming plentiful. Peonies 
are pest planted in the fall anytime until the ground is frozen
