SUMMER TRADE LIST, 1955 
PEONIES 
27 
We offer our usual fine grade of 3 to 5 eye divisions clean, healthy, and strictly 
true to name, from plants not older than three years. As we do not use our fields 
for commercial cut flowers, you can depend on thoroughly rogued stock, and fine 
young plants. Available after September 15th. 
The figures after the name of the variety imply the rating given these Peonies 
by the American Peony Society.
