Magazine (28 Jun 1890) Page(s) 684. New Varieties of Pæonia albiflora. Daubenton.—The outer petals of this variety are broad, flat, rose-coloured, and form a sort of guard to the inner petals, which are much smaller, very numerous, and rose coloured with white tips. The flower itself is of good size. Madame Bertioz.—This is evidently a very vigorous variety, for the flowers may be described as of huge size, even for a double of P. albiflora. The petals are of a uniform deep red, very numerous, and the inner ones are of moderate width, and slightly cut. Both were shown by Messrs. Paul & Son, Cheshunt, at the Drill Hall, on the 24th inst., and received Awards of Merit.
