AUTUMN CATALOGUE, 1925. PAEONIES Choice Herbaceous N'arieties. Paeonies have continued to increase in popular favor with each .succeeding year as pre-eminent among our hardy perennial plants. In response to the increasing demand, cultivators of this beautiful plant have enthusiastically en- gaged themselves in introducing and propagating new varieties, aiming at more perfect flowers of more delicate tints and deeper, richer shades. The new varieties them- selves sufficiently attest the success of these efforts. Not to have seen any of them at its best is to have missed a flower exquisitely lovely. No class of plants is more easily grown than Paeonies and few repay the care given them, so generously. They are perfectly hardy and thrive in almost any soil, but any extra attention given them will be amply repaid; deeply cultivat- ed and well enriched loam suits them best. In shady places, where few plants will succeed, Paeonies will grow luxuriant- ly. Such spots are usually to be found, and the colors of the flowers are brighter and they last much longer than if fully exposed to the sun. The plants, however, thrive equally well in sunny situations, and planted in front of shrubbery or on either side of w'alks they are very effective.
