Tree or Bush Peonies 
This famous group is the shrub type. The 
stems do not die to the ground each year as the 
herbaceous Peonies do, and in the course of 
many years they will reach the height of 3 
to 4 feet. Most varieties bloom in early spring— 
late April to the end of May, depending on the 
locality. They are of easy culture and grow 
anywhere other Peonies do. It is best, however, 
to plant them where they are sheltered from 
sweeping winds.

Single or Anemone-flowered 
Peonies

make them stand up better than Double 
Peontes. With their brilliant colors they are 
unsurpassed for the perennial border and in 
front of and among shrubbery. They are of 
easy culture and bloom about the same time as 
Double Peonies. Their average height is 2 to 
*3 feet.

Fern-leaf Peony 



Tree Peony 
Peony Officinalis (Early or 
May-Blooming Peonies) 
In this group belongs the early red Peony of 
our grandmother’s garden. However, some 
outstanding new varieties have been developed 
and are offered here. This group will help 
greatly to extend the Peony season due to the 
fact that they come into bloom about two weeks 
earlier than others.

3 for $4.50.
