PiEONIA.
Herbaceous.— For a brillianr display of bloom during May and June
there is nothing that will equal the Psonias, many of which are so vivid
and so profuse in bloom, that they almost dazzle ths eye. The Paeoniahag
long been cultivated, and
almost as long a popular
flower, yet in. no class of
plants have there been
greater improvements
made in recent years. We
now have them of the
purest white to almost
black, witn all shades of
pink and red imaginable
and with abundance of
delightful fragrance.
Many, too, have flowers
of immense size, most
intensely double, and
produced in a profusion
scarcely equalled by any
other plant. Pseonias are
perfectly hardy and suc-
ceed in almost any soil,
except where water
stands. 2zc.
