A FLOWER FROM SHANGRI-LA — TREE PEONY MOUTAN 
Tree Peony Moutan is native to the mountains of Thibet. It is the hardiest and most free

profusely every year and to last for a life time; remains in good, clean foliage throughout the 
summer. 
Moutan blooms with late tulips; before and with irises. The blooms are single, of six to 
ten inch spread; intense, dark red with a mass of golden stafmens in the center. Will succeed in 
any well drained and sunny location.

ember, at its height in July and August. The 20 acre

READING 
Is Usually the Best Time to Plant Daylilies 
Daylilies transplant safely whenever the ground 1s workable. Spring and summer plantings 
permit a full season of root development for bloom next year. Fall plantings remain a half year 
ahead of plantings made the following spring. Nothing to be gained by waiting. PLANT NOW.
