Japanese 
PEONIES 
This type of Peony is very graceful in growth and 
quite different in type of flower. The flowers are single 
or semi-double with wide flaring petals of exquisite 
coloring and texture. The centers are usually a more or 
less compact mass of tiny petaloids, usually a color con- 
trasting with the main petal color. Very charming color 
effects are found among them. Ideal for flower ar- 
rangements.,

Beautiful White Japanese Peony 
Surpasses all white Japanese Peony originations in our 
estimation. Large flowers with a lovely cushion of bright 
golden petaloids. Tall, early midseason. Very erect grower. 
This Peony makes a lovely specimen plant. Entire stock of 
this Peony has been sold every year to our blooming time

beauty. A Peony that you will be proud to display in your 
garden. Many Peonies introduced from 25 to 100 dollars. 
Our introduction price for this fine Peony was $5.00. Re-
