you choose mostly from early doubles, also from all singles 
and Japanese type.

From Illinois. (a g°ower) Those of your varieties that have matured 
enough to judge had seme beautiful blooms this year, Can hardly wait 
for your Hybrids to bloom. 
From Wisconsin. Am celighted with three lovely blooms on Moon of 
Nippon. 
From Illinois. I have 25 of your peonies and they are all very lovely. 
From Oregon. Well p'eased with the peonies ordered from you. Think 
Cleopatra is a beautiful color. 
From Dlinois, A coup'e of years ago we got around 20 varieties from 
your e-mpany, and every One started and bloomed the first year. They 
are now very beautiful and doing fine. 
From Washington. (a grower) I certainly like Auten Peonies. We 
grow quite a few. 
From Massachusetts. I don’t think you say enough in praise of 
Radiant Red. Of about 30 varieties of double red lactifolias (not hy- 
brids) I have, there is not another that has such a ec'ear bright and 
shining red so free fr~-m purple tints. (except in the Hybrids). Do you 
have any other lactifolia (common species) kinds that are as clear 
as: Radiant Red? If you do have, I want them. 
From Illinois. Your peonies were certainly beautiful beyond words. 
I ean hardly wait to get our order. 
From Ohio. Your peonies are fine. They were beautiful this year. 
From Illinois, (a grower) Received plants O. K. Thanks a lot.
