Book Description
Excerpt from Rare and Choice Peonies, Iris and Other Perennials The plants and shrubs in Movilla Gardens, with but few exceptions, are from the private gardens of Mr. James Boyd and Mr. John C. Wister, who, as amateurs have been collecting, grow ing, and testing them for many years. Their stock has been gathered from all over the world and includes the newest and choicest varieties that have been introduced. Mr. Wister has personally visited all the prominent European nurseries since the war and has secured their rarest and most beautiful introductions. Mr. Boyd has given personal attention to the correct labeling and recording of each variety, and all of the stock has been carefully transplanted and cultivated under his supervision. Movilla Gardens have been awarded the highest prizes by the American Peony Society, American Iris Society and the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society. Movilla Gardens do not offer a general line of plants and shrubs such as can be bought from' the average nurseryman, but confine their list to a few specialties, offering only the rarest and choicest of each. A really rare and beautiful Peony or Iris may cost a little more than an ordinary one when originally purchased, but it occupies no more room and requires no more fertilization or cultivation. The rare and beautiful plant is a joy forever - an ever-increasing joy from year to year - something in which the owner will always take pride and be glad to have his friends and neighbors enjoy with him. A permanent embossed metal label, with copper W1re attached, will be furnished free with each variety of plants, thus obviating one of the greatest exasperations of the gardener, who finds labels illegible or broken in a short time. We can also furnish copper coated steel rods, 3 feet long, with eyelet at end, (such as we use ourselves) and extra metal labels, at prices shown in current price-list.

Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Price List of Choice and Rare Varieties of Peonies and Irises, 1924 Peonies and Irises thrive in most any soil that is not too wet. Should it be inclined to be acid, a light dressing of lime will be beneficial. Never permit fresh manure to come in contact with the roots. Bone-meal is a safe proposition, and well decomposed barnyard manure may be worked around the plants but not over the crown of the plants. Peonies should be planted to 3 feet apart, and for field culture rows should b 4 feet apart. The plants should be set so the top buds are 2 to 3 inches below the surface of the soil. Deeper planting may cause shy bloom ing. September and October are the best months to set peonies, but they may be set any time be fore the ground freezes. The plants start growth too early to handle well in the spring; we there fore never advise spring setting. Irises should be planted rather shallow, just covering the rhizome, and both peonies and irises are better planted in the full sunlight away from trees and shrubs and not too close to the walls of a building, although they will endure partial shade. Give good, clean shallow cultivation and you will be rewarded with fine bloom. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Rare and Choice Irises, Peonies, Gladioli, Dahlias: Continuous Bloom in the Garden Few people realize the remarkable development and improvement that has been made m recent years in some of the new introductions of this delicately beautiful flower. Our stock of Perry's, Bliss, Cayeux, Vilmorin, Maron and other foreign novelties ls limited, as we can only dispose of the increase under import regulations, and of the more expensive varieties only one or two rhizomes can be spared this season, so late customers may be disappointed in securing them. Most of the stock of our rare varieties, both American and foreign, was secured direct from the introducers. Orders will be taken in the spring, but no deliveries of the rare varieties will be made until after blooming season is over. If our supply of any variety for sale is ex hansted when your order is received, you will be promptly advised and your money returned, not be kept waiting, as we have in many cases, two or three months, and then disappointed in' getting the desired plants.
