ASSORTED COLLECTIONS 
For those who wish a good collection without 
names, we can furnish a good assortment in two 
grades— $4.00 and $6.00 per dozen. They are all 
good varieties and would be worth much more if 
sold to name. 
For those who wish Japanese-type Peonies, we can 
furnish two grades in a mixture of colors. $5.00 
and $7.50 per dozen. 

Tree Peanies 
Tree Peonies make a woody growth and do not die back to 
the ground in the fall, but eventually form broad shrubs. 
Propagation is difficult and the growth is slow, but if one will 
be patient, the results are well worthwhile. The color range is 
far wider than in the herbaceous class including the salmon- 
pinks and yellow. 
The buds start very early in the spring and the plants 
should be shaded through the winter to delay the growth so 
that it will not be damaged by late frosts. 
We can furnish a limited number at $5.00 to $10.00 each. 
“ae 
For masses of color in the garden or border in summer and 
early fall, there is nothing more satisfactory than Phlox. The 
newer varieties have been selected for their clear coloring— 
bright scarlet reds, clear pinks, soft lavenders and purples 
avoiding magenta. These with white give pleasing color com- 
binations. 
Phlox should be planted in well-drained, fertile soil and 
thinned every three or four years. This allows more air drain- 
age and overcomes the tendency for the lower leaves to 
mildew. Dusting the foliage with sulphur is also one of the 
best methods of prevention. Pick off the faded blooms before 
the seed ripens. This allows the plant to make a second flower- 
ing and prevents seedlings springing up and choking the 
parent plants. Seedlings are usually inferior in color and cause 
much confusion. (Continued on next page)
