Our Peonies Will Also Pietve You 
“Please send these Peony roots as possible. I bought 
roots from you two years ago, and was really surprised 
what real nice roots you send out, and thanks lots for the 
effort of getting them out as soon as possible.” 
Fargo, North Dakota 
“T received some time ago, your shipment of Septemb- 
er 18th—and want to say I am very much pleased with 
the appearance, size and condition of the Peony roots sent 
me.” Afton, Virginia 
“Two years ago, I purchased Peony roots of you that 
have proved to be fine. I am getting ready to set quite a 
garden, and will set a few more this fall. Please send 
me the following __.” Imlay City, Michigan 
“The Peony roots which I got from you last fall turn- 
ed out fine. Over half of them had one or two blooms, and 
they came true to name, which pleased me greatly.” 
Dunsmuir, California 
“Allow me to compliment you upon the high quality of 
your Peony divisions. Last fall, I advised the purchase 
and turned my catalog over to a local resident, Mrs. ...., 
and combined my order with theirs. After arrival, due 
to a misunderstanding, my Peonies laid for eight or ten 
days in a semi-dry condition but regardless of this abuse, 
bloom buds of full size were produced on all but two 
plants as compared with purchases from two other sup- 
pliers at a considerable higher price which received proper 
care and produced no bloom buds at all, and today the 
stems and foliage are at least fifty per-cent more luxuriant 
on your stock. Peony growing and breeding has for six- 
teen years been a hobby of mine and I flatter myself that 
I have a slight knowledge of what a good Peony should be. 
Please send catalog as usual when it comes off the press.” 
Lombard, Illinois 
“The forty varieties of Peonies I purchased from you 
in the early fall of 1935 are the wonder of our town. They 
attract more attention than some of my prize winning 
gladiolus which cost quite a few times more than the 
Peonies did.” Linden, New Jersey 
“Permit me to congratulate you for the very strong, 
healthy roots you sent me last fall, and all stock bloomed 
true to name and color.” Suncook, New Hampshire 
“The two previcus Peony orders have done so well 
and were such fine roots, I am sending you my third order.” 
Eaton, Colorado 
“Please send me a copy of your Peony Catalog. I 
will be wanting Peonies again this season. My Peonies 
from you in the past have been just wonderful, and have 
been the joy and surprise of everyone who has been to 
my garden to see them.” Pontiac, Michigan 
“Inclosed find order for 330 Peony divisions. The 
Peonies I received from you last year were the best I have 
ever bought. When I need Peonies you will be sure to 
get my order.” Moorestown, New Jersey.
