May Day Peonies (officinalis) 
These are the famous old varieties of the 
true officinalis (May day) peonies with the 
sweet potato-like roots. One of the blooms is 
pictured in the upper left-hand corner of this 
page. Henry Field, knowing how people like 
the extra earliness and brilliant colors of May 
Day Peonies, used to import them from Hol- 
land, and thousands of the plants he sold are 
still growing in the yards of our customers 
throughout the nation. May Day Peonies sel- 
dom are offered in this country because they 
multiply so slowly, but we have managed to 
import them from Holland again. They are 
absolutely hardy and will live for years.
