PEONY ROOTS 
(STANDARD 3 TO 5 EYE DIVISIONS) 
Peonies are completely hardy, and not fussy. Plant them in the fall, feed them and 
leave them alone. They live for years and become a lifetime investment. The foliage 
is attractive all summer and the blooms, of course are gorgeous. Good cut flower 
varieties are marked below with an asterisk. Singles and Japanese varieties are especially 
good for arrangements.

CYCLAMEN 
(PLANTS FROM 4” POTS) 
A luxury item originating in ancient Persia, and one of the showiest of flowering pot 
plants for the Holidays, cyclamen are something of a challenge. Like gloxinias, how- 
ever, they richly reward careful culture. 
These plants have been growing under glass for a year and are timed to bloom for 
Christmas. The numerous long-lasting flowers, with petals thrown back like the wings 
on a diving hawk, nod brilliantly over dark ruddy-green foliage. The varieties are 
named although peculiarly some names are simply that of color.
