Peony Price List
May, 1925.
This is our latest price list and one of which we are proud as it is a better one than ever before. The varieties listed have all been rigidly tested and for several reasons we can unhesitatingly recommend each peony listed. They have all been good growers and bloomers for us and we know that they will do well in any good soil, with ordinary cultivation.
The prices quoted are in each case for strong three to five eye divisions or Equivalent one year roots. This is the size which we like to plant ourselves, and which we believe will give surest and best results. In some cases where the varieties are listed at six dollars or more, we will furnish smaller roots for one-half the regular price, such smaller roots to have at least two good “eyes.”
All roots are guaranteed to be true to name, from healthy stock which has bloomed and been checked carefully by us. Occasionally a mistake may occur in digging and labeling and if such a case should happen we will replace the plant or return the money paid.
Orders are filled as soon after the first of September as growing conditions permit, exactly in the order in which they are received and as the quantity of some of the choicer varieties is limited we advise placing your order early.
TERMS
Our terms are cash with the order, and we will promptly return the money for any varieties of which we have sold out. We will not substitute.
These prices include free packing, but shipments will be sent by express on which the purchaser pays the charges unless we are requested to send by parcel post. If customers prefer the package sent by parcel post, please send fifteen cents addi- tional for each root or division and we will pay the postage and insure the safe delivery of the package.
NOTE — Many varieties are described in our catalogue which are not listed for sale this year. Should any of these be de- sired we will furnish them at 1924 prices.
