The Popular Peony

F late years Peonies, through

their own intrinsic merits,

have increased wonderfully in

popular~ favor, and justly so.
No other flower can be grown with
such ease and withso little regular
attention. They are perfectly hardy,
increasing in size and in profusion of
bloom from year to year. Who is
not familiar ‘with the old crim-
son peony (piney) of our grandmoth-
ers’ gardens? Through the introduc-
tion of improved varieties the size has
been increased until we have varieties
seven inches or more in diameter of
bloom, with the delightful fragrance
of the rose, ranging in color through
almost every tint of pink, white, red
and crimson, with even a startling
approach toward yellow. The im-
provement has not only been in size
and color of flower, but also in vigor
and habit of the plant. Surprisingly
long stems, two and three feet in
length, strong but shapely, are pro-
duced by many varieties.

VARIED USES OF THE
PEONY

Aside from small garden and door-
yard planting, they are admirably
adapted for large circular beds, bor-
ders along walks and drives, planting
among shrubbery, and other lines of
landscape work. No lawn is too small
for a few plants.

As a cut flower, for which they are
indeed well suited, they are more ex-
tensively used each year. In vases
and bowls no flower is mcre gorgeous
and at the same time so refined.
Especially for large functions they
are invaluable. Their shipping qual-
ities are unsurpassed. Each year
from early to late May we ship large
quantities of cut flowers, often long
distances, with our system of packing
arriving in good condition.

PREPARATION OF SOIL AND CULTURE

Peonies will thrive in almost any soil, but succeed best in a deep rich, loam. While requiring little
care they amply repay all attention given them. The most satisfactory results are obtained in the largest
and most perfect flowers, borne on long stems, by planting in situations where a moderate degree of moisture
is found, avoiding land susceptible to flooding or having a tendency to a swampy nature. They are. gross
feeders and the soil’s fertility should be maintained, but do not use fresh manure.

A splendid peony bed or border may be made as follows: Remove the surface soil to a depth of two
to three feet. If the subsoil is of a porous and loamy nature the depth need not be so great. Over the bottom
spread a layer six to eight inches thick of thoroughly well rotted cow manure, over this a layer of sandy soil,
and mix thoroughly. Fill to six or eight inches above the surface with rich soil. When planting, place the
crown several inches below the surface, taking care that the earth is well firmed about the roots, and leaving
a circle two and one-half to three feet in diameter for the future development of the plant. Ridge slightly,
yemoving the ridge with a prong hce in the spring. A mulch of coarse, strawy manure or forest leaves is a
enefit.

The first and second year give the plants good care, keeping the soil well stirred during the early part
of the season, allowing no weeds to grow. Tne third year the plants will sufficiently cover the ground so that
less attention will be necessary. In late fall the tops may be cut off several inches above the soil and thrown
back with several inches of coarse manure as a winter mulch. When spring arrives remove the coarser portion

aud Str the finer parts well into the soil, taking care not to disturb the pinkish-white buds then beginning
to show.

TIME FOR PLANTING

The best time is in the fall, as soon as the roots are well ripened. (in this latitude usually early in Sep-
tember), though they may be planted as late as the grouad can be cultivatel. They may also be planted in
the spring, but the growth the first season is not so strong and thea they seldom bloom until the second year.
This is also partially true of very late fall planting. Early planting is desirable. All peonies give better
blooms after they become thoroughly established, so should no be judged by first season.

Iris.

The grand and royal colors of these flowers make them invaluable in herbaceous borders, for planting
in masses cn the lawn, or among shrubbery, or fcr naturalizing in wild and uncultivated places, both on account
- of their hardiness and easy culture, and for tte lavish wealth of bloom. A moist ,rich loam or garden soil
is best adapted to their recuirements, they respond liberally to extra fertilization. The German Iris succeed
in partial shade, but produce their best blooms in full
sun. Japan Iris should be planted in full sun, and
while they don’t demand it to give good results, they
reach their highest development if they can be well
watered just before and during the blooming period.
For best results Iris should be planted in late August,
September or early October.

Evergreens

_ ._. Evergreens produce an effect obtainable in no other way, and are now appreciated everywhere as
indispensable for variety and effect. Besides their recognized value as specimen trees on the lawa, for screens,
hedges, and shelter from winter’s winds, the taller growing varieties form ideal backgrounds for the showy
flowering shrubs and trees of spring, the berries of autumn, the bright twigs of winter,-or the light green, silver
or golden growths of the smaller evergreens. Beautiful effects are obtained by planting in masses varieties
that contrast finely in color, form and foliage, such ar the Pines, Spruce, Arborvitaes, Junipers, and Biotas,
the lower growing ones toward the front.
The marked success that has been obtained through fall planting in various sections, particularly the
Eastern states, has created a strong demand for evergreens for fall or “‘ August’’ planting, including September.
is is due to the fact that evergreens are making a strong root growth at this time and if they can be trans-
planted in such manner as not to check this growth, they will become established before severe weather and be
prepared to make the most of the warm sdring months when evergreens make their strong foliage growth.
To secure these results it is necessary that they be transported and planted in a comparatively short time;
if possible just after a heavy raifor wien the air is not hot and dry. We fear that in hot, dry sections results
will be disappointing unless an ahundance of water is available.
When transplanting, care must be taken that the roots are not exposed to the air longer than necessary,
for their sap being resinous, if allowed to harden will not revive. Make sure that the earth is well firmed

about the roots, no openings or air spaces being left, and keep the top soil lightly stirred about the tree for
the first two years.

CLEMATIS PANICULATA

Desirable Hardy Vines

Climbing vines are as necessary to the comfort and beauty of a home as trees and shrubs. They tone
down the stiff, bold angles of new buildings, furnish shade and flowers over porches and trellises, and heighten
the charm of rock, precipice, tree trunk or ruin. When planted near the house where the soil is very dry
from the protection.of the building or drainage by foundation, the soil should be well enriched and watered
until they become throoughly established. Those we offer are field grown.

Five of a variety at the 10 rate, less at the each rate.

CLEMATIS

walks, verandas or trunks of trees. 15c each, $1.00

Taese graceful, free-flowering vines are well adapt-
ed for trailing on balconies, porches, etc., or for cover-
ing walls or fences. A loamy, fertile soil should be
given them and for best results it should be frequently
enriched. In early spring cut away all weak branches
and train on a support to prevent their whipping in
the breeze, as splitting of the bark by twisting is
fatal to the plant.

flowers. 35c each, $3.90 per 10.

PANICULATA. Japanese Clematis or Japanese
Virgin’s Bower. One of the most beautiful hardy
vines; flowers pure white in large panicles, fairly
covering the upper portion of the plant, fragrance
resembling the English Hawthorne. A _ rapid,

twenty feet and spreading out when trained on
BA strings. Perfectly hardy. 2)c each, $1.60
per 10.

Strawberries for Fall Planting

Z ee
URSER
E Mo,

There is a growing demand for strawberry plants for fall
planting, particularly in sections where plants set at this season
and properly cared for give best results.

A valuable feature connected with fall planting is in that
the planter usually has more leisure at this season than in the

spring when other crops must be prepared for; also a number
of trials have demonstrated the fact that fall set plants withstand
drouth the succeeding summer better than~plants set the same
spring.

; A point that must not be overlooked is that proper care is
given the soil before planting and in mulching.

Never use ground that has not been well plowed and pulverized
though it must be firmly rolled or packed before planting. Also
avoid using ground that is apt to be cold and wet during winter,
and never set a bed where there are likely to be an unusual amount
of weeds. Plant in rows four feet apart, and four, three, or two
feet apart in the rows; perhaps two feet will give best results in
most cases. For garden the culture rows may be two feet apart.
Set the plants just deep enough so no part of the roots are ex-
posed yet not deep enough to cover the crown, seeing that the
earth is well firmed about the roots. If planted with a dibble
the roots.should be trimmed to three or four inches.

As soon as planted, unless soil is very moist, if possible give
give the plants a sprinkling of water, though this must be done in
late afternoon or evening if the sun is hot. If the ground be dry
it it well to apply the mulch at once, which may be of rotten
leaves or straw, preferably broken straw, but not that which has

‘cheat seed’’ init. Very well rotted strawy manure is excellent,

; ; f though care must be taken that it is not fresh.
The following list comprises a large part of the most valuable varieties and are those which we consider
most suitable for the season of planting. When setting ‘‘imperfect flowered” varieties every third or fourth

r ow should be some “perfect flowered”’ variety.

Plants by Mail. The weight of plants varies with the season and variety, so it is impossible to fix upon
an amount that will always be exact. If wanted by mail, add 10c per doz., 25c¢ per 100, for postage, ete.

PEONIES

a

The best time for planting is early fall, though they may be successfully transplanted in the spring.

Our Peonies are grown and have blossomed on our grounds; descriptions are from our observations
as they bloomed. Our stock must not be confused with imported stock, much of which has caused such
confusion in nomenclature.

Prices are for divisions of 2 to 5 eyes. This list does not comprise our entire assortment, for which
see our general price list, mailed on application.
