FOR PERMANENCE 
PLANT PEONIES 
100 Fine Varieties 
In our attempt to induce those 
who recieve our list, to place their 
peony erders with us, we offer a 
few important censiderations. 
Our plants and root divisions are 
free from disease. The divisions, 
generous in size, with 3 to 5 eyes, 
are taken from sturdy three year 
old plants. Transportation is fully 
prepaid, and we offer only plants 
that have bloomed in our fields. 
Our prices may not be the lowest 
in the U.S.A. but we have no aver- 
sion to careful comparisons! In 
fact we hope our prospective pur- 
chasers will take note of the very 
modest prices.

TO SUCCEED WITH PEONIES 
When you receive your shipment 
of root divisions you will find that 
they are ready for planting. No 
trimming or pruning is necessary. 
A Peony division is nothing more 
nor less than a well develoned root 
system with from three to five eyes 
or buds on the crown. When planting 
it is important to remember that the 
division should be placed in the 
ground so that the eyes are covered 
by an inch and a half or two inches 
of soil. Do not make the mistake of 
planting too deep. Two inches is 
deep enough. 
If the plants need fertilizer use a 
small amount of bone meal around 
each plant in the fall of the year. 
At blooming time when the buds 
become soft and fluffy, cut some of 
them and let them open in the house. 
Many varieties will keep for ten days 
if cut when the buds are opening.
