Peonies are Easily Grown 
Hardy as the oak, Peonies are so easily grown that little 
need be said. Often, in neglected gardens, one sees large 
clumps that have flourished and bloomed for years. Yet they 
amply repay all attention given them. They thrive in almost 
any good. well drained soil, are best in full sun but succeed 
with shade part of the day. Plant 3 feet apart. The early va- 
rieties usually begin blooming here about May 5 to 8 
The name and date in parenthesis is the originator or intro- 
ducer and date of introduction. The guards are the wide outer 
petals. The type of flower is designated as follows: 
Crown. Wide center or crown petals with narrower, shorter 
petals forming a collar or ring between them and the guards. 
Bomb. Center petals of uniform width but narrower than 
the guards and forming a globe within the guards. 
Semi-rose. Flowers that would be classed as rose but for an 
»ecasional pollen bearing stamen. 
Rose. Perfectly full, all petals wide, no stamens. The cen- 
ter petals may not be a wide as the guards but if quite dis- 
tinct it would be a bomb.
