Donia NWN, outan - Chinese Tree Peonies 
One of the choicest plants available for the garden. Quite hardy, 
does well under the simplest treatment. It flourishes in the most aston- 
ishing manner, bearing blossoms from 6 to 8 inches across which 
increase every year in beauty and size. A grand addition to the gar- 
den, as they do not die down to the ground like the herbaceous sorts, 
but make fine bushes 3 to 4 feet in height, covered every spring with 
elegant flowers. 
Culture: It is advisable to avoid swind-swept locations and to pro- 
tect the early bloom buds in case of late spring frosts. The south 
or east side of a planting of evergreens, shrubs, wall or building, is a 
very good location for Tree Peonies. Mulching is advisable the first 
winter after transplanting. Apply mulch of light material after 
ground is frozen solid. Any good, well drained garden soil is satis- 
factory. Never cut back woody branches.

raceful (Anemone- Flowered Proonies 
A type not very generally known, but awakening great interest and enthusiasm. The opened flowers are of extra 
wide spread, with one or more layers of broad guard petals which act as a cup to the mounted center. In place of 
the pollen-bearing stamens, the stamens and anthers are greatly enlarged into narrow, thick, twisted petaloids of 
various colors, forming a dense cushion. They produce an enormous amount of flowers, creating a riot of color in 
the garden and are superb for cutting, lasting longer than the double flowers.
