Dreer, Philadelphia, Pa. A FlHLD OF P.«OXIES AT OUR NURSERIES, RlVERTON, N. J. DOUBLE HERBACEOUS P/EONIES. (Illustrated in colors on the covers of this Catalogue.') The Herbaceous Paeonies have always held an important place among hardy plants, and with the wonderful improvements made during recent years have established themselves among the leaders for popular favor. Their requirements are so simpleâa good, rich, deep soil and an open, sunny position, if possibleâwhich, however, is not ab- solutely necessary, as they thrive almost equally as well in a partially shaded position, 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 produce 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, increasing in size and beauty each year. Truly a plant for everybody. The roots may be planted at any time during the Autumn or Spring months, but for best results they should be set out in Autumn.
