8h Perennials 
Peonies 
Often called the King of Perennials, the Peony is well-known and loved 
for its beauty, dependability and hardiness. 
We are pleased to offer an exceptionally fine list of both double and 
single Peonies in the best varieties which also make excellent cutflowers. 
You will note that we do not list any varieties with a rating of less than 8.6 
according to the standard of the Peony Society of America and Canada. 
Considering that 10 is perfect, you may be assured that our list represents 
the cream of the crop. 
Culture of Peonies is comparatively easy. Be sure to have not more 
than 2 inches of soil above the crown. Peonies will not bloom if planted 
too deep. 
Feeding time: Late summer or fall. Give them a liberal handful of 
farm manure, or 5-10-5 fertilizer per plant, mixed well into the soil. A small 
handful of lime will greatly benefit your Peonies. 
But if you should have forgotten to do so, it is better and do not hesi- 
tate—to apply this plant food in the winter.
