Richards Gardens 
Growers of Peonies for Twenty-Four Years 
“Old Homestead Brand” 
PEONIES 
We want to say just a word about the quality of Rich- 
ards’ Peonies. We send out, as always, nice clean roots, 
three to five eye divisions. All from one, two and three year 
old clumps. You will find no clubby stock in our peonies and 
we guarantee them true to name. 
Our digging time starts September list, but unless you 
specify a shipping date they will not be shipped until after 
September 15th, as after that time the eyes are better and 
stronger and it is really better to wait until that time, unless 
you must have them before. 
Where ten of a kind are ordered, an extra root will be 
added. 
We are giving the rating on the peonies and you will note 
that there are many in this list that rate nine or better and 
only in one or two instances are they below eight. We are 
very proud of this list and know you will be pleased with the 
offerings we makes this year. 
OUR GUARANTEFE—We exercise great care in keeping our 
varieties true to name and will replace any variety that 
proves untrue two years from date of sale. 
Peonies To Color 
We have, every year, an accumulation of peonies to color 
but unnamed. These are from our regular stock, and you 
might get a $3.00 peony among these mixed varieties. White 
20e each; Pink, 20c each and Red, 20c each. Not less than 
five of these will be filled on an order, or we will furnish 
6 RED MIXED 
6 PINK MIXED for > 3 OO 
6 WHITE MIXED 
SPECIAL 
Two years ago we purchased from a private gardener 
his collection of peonies which included about forty vari- 
eties of the better kinds such as Blanche King, Hansina 
Brand, Philippe Rivoire and Kelway’s Glorious as well as 
many of the other high rated varieties. 
Due to the fact that these became badly mixed in dig- 
ging and shipping to our place we have decided to dig 
these as they are and make a special price of: 
> for $1, postpaid 
These are real bargains and you will surely be pleased 
with what you get in this offer.
