CO, AUTUMN CATALOGUE, 1907. 13 PAEONIES. CHOICE HERBACEOUS VARIETIES. Paeonies have continued to increase in pop- ular favor vs^ith each succeeding year as pre-eminent among our hardy perennial plants. In response to the increasing- de- mand, cultivators of this beautiful plant have enthusiastically engaged themselves in introducing and propagating new varieties, aiming at more perfect flovi'ers of more deli- cate tints and deeper, richer shades. The new varieties themselves 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. From these and our standard varieties one may find any shade or combination of colors he may desire to enhance the beauty of his lawn or herbaceous border. 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 cultivated and well enriched loam suits them best. In shady places, where few plants will succeed, Paeonies will grow luxuriantly. 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 walks they are very effective. Our stock is very large, embracing an extensive assortment of the newest and best varieties, from which we have selected the following choice and distinct kinds, all of which we can confidently recommend: CHOICE VARIETIES OF PAEONIES.
