Hardy Herbaceous Peonies. DREER'S Perfect Paeonies. The Herbaceous Paeonies have always held an im- portant place among hardy plants, and with the wonder- ful improvements made during recent years have estab- lished themselves among the leaders for popular favor. Their requirements are so simple—a good, rich, deep soil and a liberal supply of water during their growing season, being sufficient to give an abundance and wealth of flowers which rival the finest roses in coloring, and pro- duce during their flowering season a gorgeous effect not equalled by any other flower. They are perfectly hardy, requiring no protection whatever even in the most severe climate, are not troubled with insect pests or disease of any kind, and once planted take care of themselves, in- creasing in beauty each year. An important point to observe in the planting of Her- baceous Pseonies is not to plant too deep. The roots should be placed so that the crowns are covered with 2 inches of soil. Too deep planting is a frequent cause of shy flowering. Eight Superb New and Rare Double Herbaceous Paeonies, Charlemagne. Rose tinted white; large flowers of good substance. Duchesse de Nemours.
