As to Von Siebold's introductions, they were partly sold to Prince Frederic of the Netherlands, and never passed into commercial hands; the rest, as far as I remember, were bought by Messrs. E. H. Krelage & Son, of Haarlem. Those given over to commerce were—

Annales d'horticulture et de botanique, ou flore des jardins du royaume des Pays-Bas. publiée par la Société d'horticulture des PaysBas et rédigée par de Siebold et de Vriese.
Das 1. Heft dieses längst erwarteten Journales, was sich die Bekanntmachung der Kultur-, Schmuck- und Zierpflanzen, in sofern diese aus den niederländischen Kolonien in Amerika und in Asien, einschliesslich Japan's, stammen, zur hauptsächlichen Aufgabe gestellt hat, liegt uns vor. Der Inhalt ist mannigfaltig und interessant, wie man auch nicht anders erwarten kann. Der Reigen wird mit der Beschreibung und Abbildung einer Form der baumartigen Gichtrose (Paeonia Moutan Sims), die den Namen Impératrice de France führt, eröffnet. Es ist eine schöne einfache Blume von pfirsichrother Farbe mit etwas gefranzt-gezähnten Blumenblättern. Die von v. Siebold aus Japan mitgebrachten 42 Sorten sind von denen, welche von Fortune aus China nach England gebracht wurden, verschieden und zeichnen sich besonders durch ihre bedeutendere Grösse (30–36 Centimeter, also oft über 1 Fuss im Durchmesser) aus. Die ersten 12 Sorten, welche 1848 blühten, sind in den Besitz des Prinzen Friedrich der Niederlande übergegangen. Von den übrigen sind weissblumig: ....Flora....

The 1. issue of this long-awaited journal, which has made its main task the publication of cultivated, ornamental and ornamental plants, insofar as they come from the Dutch colonies in America and in Asia, including Japan, is in front of us. The content is varied and interesting, as you cannot expect otherwise. The round is opened with the description and illustration of a form of tree-like gout rose (Paeonia Moutan Sims), which bears the name Impératrice de France. It is a beautiful simple flower of a peach-red color with some fringed-toothed petals. The 42 varieties brought from Japan ny v. Siebold are different from those brought to England by Fortune from China and are particularly notable for their larger size (30–36 centimeters, often over 1 foot in diameter). The first 12 varieties that bloomed in 1848 became the property of Prince Frederick of the Netherlands.
Of the rest are with white flowers: ....Flora...
