PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
PEONIES 
Plant in good average garden soil. Spade up the ground sev- 
eral times as deep and large as the plant to be planted. 
Place the eyes 2 to 21% inches under the level of the ground. 
Place a handful of bone meal around each plant, mixing it into 
the soil. 
Do not plant near trees or shrubbery. They like plenty of 
sunshine. Disbud the lateral buds for show flowers. 
Cultivate frequently. Cover with straw or other litter the first 
year to protect from heaving. 
IRIS

meal and crushed limestone. 
Plant the roots 2 to 3 inches under the ground and cover the 
body of the plant with not over an inch of soil.
