PEONIES for Fall Delivery 
Peonies should be planted from the beginning oi September until 
the ground ireezes. We begin digging early in September and can 
ship any time until the ground freezes. They preier a heavy loam 
soil, although any good garden soil will ‘give good results. It 
should be well dyained and away from the shade oi trees or build- 
ings. The soil should be worked deep. Manure should either be 
incorpsrated in the soil some time beiore the roots are planted or 
used as a mulch during the winter and worked into the soil in the 
spring. It should not be allowed to come in contact with the roots 
at any time. The roots should be planted with the eyes two or 
three inches below the suriace of the soil. They are hardy and free 
from insect attacks. Early planting is to be recommended, as it 
gives the plant a chance to get established before the ground freezes. 
Orders may be booked at any time for iall delivery. As the stock 
of some of the new and rare varieties is limited, early orders are 
advisable. 
So far as possible, we send strong one-year plants; when this 
is impossible, we send divisions with three to five strong eyes which 
generally bloom the first year. Peonies do not come to their best 
until the third or fourth year, and some varieties do not bloom until 
the second or third year aiter planning. We grow our own roots 
and guarantee them true to name.
