PEONY SPECIES 
I offer a few species some of which are not easy to 
obtain true to name. 
Emodi. The Himalayan peony. Very tall, with nodding 
white flowers and extremely handsome foliage. A 
beautiful species. $5.00 
Mlokosewitschi. The only true yellow herbaceous peony 
and one of the most beautiful of hardy plants. A 
very early and abundant bloomer. Although not al- 
ways certain to succeed, it should at least be tried 
in every garden. $10.00 
Willmottiae. A very beautiful white-flowered species 
from Western China; one of the earliest of all peo- 
nies; large handsome foliage. Very rare. $5.00 
Tree Peonies 
I have a few large plants of tree peonies—plants 
of five to ten years growth, unnamed but which I can 
offer by color at from $10.00 to $25.00 according to 
size and quality. 
My friend, Mr. William Gratwick, of Linwood, N. Y., 
has quite a large stock of Japanese tree peonies in a 
carefully selected group of fine varieties. I have made 
arrangements with him to help me in filling any orders 
that come to me which I am unable to fill myself. I am 
delighted to have his stock to fall back on. 
P. LUTEA 
Paeonia lutea is the wild yellow tree peony from South- 
ern China. Flower 2 to 3 inches across like an en- 
larged buttercup, with a lily-like fragrance; foliage 
fernlike, very handsome. A beautiful and unusual 
plant. $5.00 
HYBRIDS BETWEEN CHINESE TREE 
PEONIES and P. LUTEA or P. DELAVAYI 
Argosy. (1928) Clear sulphur yellow, single, 6 to 7 
inches across, with plum colored dash at base of pet- 
als. Garden Achievement Medal, Boston; F.C.C.

Besides Argosy I have some fifty other named vari-

hope to have stock of within a year or two and as 
soon as possible they will be offered to the public.
