PEONIES 
Peonies are exceptionally hardy, requir¬ 
ing no protection and increase in beauty 
each year. They should not be planted too 
deeply, but the roots should be placed so 
the crowns are covered with two inches of 
soil. Leaflet, “Peony Culture,’’ free upon 
request. We offer roots with 3 to 5 eyes. 
Prices are postpaid.
