PEONIES 
We offer 20 peonies—all double or semi-double— 
which achieve about all the effects of the thou- 
sand or so named kinds. Each is high-rated by 
Amer. Peony Society (average 9.0; 10.0 would 
be perfect). Good 3-5 eye divisions. Sprouts 
start early, so order now. If set in deep, manured 
bed in sun will last for a generation without 
any attention.
