TREE PEONIES - 
The Tree Peony is a truly aristocratic plant of old-time gardens 
which is again becoming popular. 
Its immense flowers are a 
spectacle of the garden in early May, and one of the gratifying 
things about the plants is that they improve with age. The rela- 
tively high first cost is justifted by their long life. 
The following prices apply to strong 4 to 5-year-old-field-grown 
plants that have already bloomed in the nursery. The height 
varies according to the variety, ranging from 12 to 24 inches, with 
several stems. These are NOT potted plants.

ARE TREE PEONIES HARDY? “\n 1940 we bought a Tree Peony from you. 1t has done wonderfully well. 
This year (1945) it has 38 huge, beautiful blossoms on it. We have all kinds of weather here from one extreme to 
the other, and it has stood up under all of it.”,—Mrs. Oscar LANGHOLF, Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin.
