Cart, WN outan - Chinese Tree Peonies 
One of the choicest plants available for the garden. Quite hardy, and 
does well under the simplest treatment. It flourishes in the most aston- 
ishing manner, bearing blossoms from 6 to 8 inches across, which in- 
crease every year in beauty and size. A grand addition to the garden, as 
they do not die down to the ground like the herbaceous sorts, but make 
fine bushes 3 to + feet in height covered every spring with elegant flowers. 
Culture. It is advisable to avoid wind-swept locations and to protect 
the early bloom buds in case of late spring frosts. The south or east side 
of a planting of evergreen shrubs, wall or building is a very good loca- 
tion for Tree Peonies. Mulch is advisable the first winter after trans- 
planting. Apply mulch of light material after ground is frozen solid. Any 
good, well drained garden soil is satisfactory. Never cut back woody 
branches.

Prolific lowering Anemone Cype Pronies 
A type not very generally known, but awakening great interest and 
enthusiasm. The opened flowers are of extra wide spread, with one 
or more layers of broad guard petals which act as a cup to the mount- 
ed center. In place of the pollen-bearing stamens, the stamens and 
anthers are greatly enlarged into narrow, thick, twisted petaloids of 
various colors, forming a dense cushion. They produce an enormous 
amount of flowers, creating a riot of color in the garden and are 
superb for cutting, lasting longer than the double flowers. 
(We do not ship Peonies into California, Washington, or Oregon.)
