/ REE Peonies are not only one of our rarest shrubs, but also among the choicest 
flowers grown. They differ from other Peonies in the fact that they do not die 
back to the ground in the winter time. They produce a woody growth, much like a 
rhododendron, and keep getting larger and larger each year, eventually becoming 
quite a large shrub. They usually flower the first year after planting and thereafter 
they develop year after year, producing larger quantities of gorgeous blossoms each 
succeeding year. In fact it is not unusual to see a well established plant with 50 or 
more huge blossoms at one time. They are by far the most handsome of all Peonies 
and if properly planted and cared for should last a lifetime. They are hardy without 
protection in the latitude of New York and even further North, where winter tem- 
peratures go as low as 25 or 30 degrees below zero. They flower during the month of 
May on Long Island, two or three weeks ahead of other Peonies. As cut flowers there 
is nothing more gorgeous and they last a long time when cut. Cultural directions 
accompany all shipments. The plants will be 2 to 5 years old, grafted on Herbaceous 
Peony Roots, which is the only satisfactory way to propagate them, but they soon 
establish strong root systems of their own.
