Peonies Are Easily Grown 
% 

Haven't you often wished you had all the Peonies you 
wanted, Peonies for the home and to divide with friends? 
Once established, they increase in profusion of bloom, and a 
few clumps will reward you each spring with beautiful, fra- 
grant flowers of all colors, showy white, light and deep 
shades of pink, gorgeous reds and crimson. 
Hardy as the Oak, they are easily grown. Often in old 
gardens one sees large clumps that have flourished and 
bloomed for years, yet they amply repay all attention given 
them. Peonies thrive in almost any good, well drained soil. 
Plant about 3 ft. apart. Best in full sun, they thrive with 
shade part of the day. The early varieties usually begin 
blooming in southwest Missouri about May 5th to 8th.
