Peonies 
These new peony creations are the most gorgeous of all flowers. Comparing 
them with most of the older varieties growing around many homes, is like comparing 
the Model T Ford with the 1955 models. 
They are so hardy they usually outlive the planter. They are as beautiful as a 
large rose and many are as fragrant as a fragrant rose. They do not require con- 
tinuous dusting to keep them healthy. They do not winter kill. All they require to 
produce the most gorgeous bloom each year is clean cultivation. Because LINS 
PEONY ORIGINATIONS are regarded as among the world’s most beautiful, they are 
found in most distinguished peony collections. If you have room for one or more 
peonies, you will never regret planting one or more of these gorgeous flowers. 
It takes 12 to 15 years to propagate a new peony, therefore they cost from $5.00 
to $15.00, however the cost figured over a lifetime of pleasure is a good investment.
