NEW YORK STATE COLLEGE OF 



AGRICULTURE— BULLETIN 



NO. 306. 



This is the fourth bulletin in the 

 peony series, being the result of the 

 joint studies of the Department of 

 Horticulture and the American Peony 

 Society. This bulletin has been su- 

 pervised by Professor John Craig and 

 prepared by Professor L. D. Batchelor, 

 assisted by Messrs. B. H. Fan- and 

 Joseph Dauphin, peony specialists, 

 representing the Peony Society. The. 

 bulletin contains a classification of the 

 peonies in the Cornell plots and a 

 careful description of all varieties thus 

 far identified. A list of corrected 

 names and descriptions of varieties 

 previously described is included. The 

 publication reports the results of the 

 tests of the very large co-operative 

 collection of peonies growing on the 

 Cornell grounds. 



The collection originally was sup- 

 posed to contain 1933 varieties but the 

 work, which is rapidly approaching 

 completion after seven years' study, 

 gives indication that there are less 

 than 500 distinct varieties. These have 

 been described in the four reports and 

 the list of synonyms has been pre- 

 pared with great care. Studies were 

 also made on the grounds of several 

 peony specialists and the descriptions 

 of a few additional varieties thus ob- 

 tained are included in the bulletin. 

 Practically every variety of the peony 

 has been fully described but for the in- 

 formation of intending planters lists 

 are given of the best varieties for cut- 

 flowers and for landscape effect. 



A permanent collection of all the 

 distinct varieties under their correct 

 names will be maintained on the 

 grounds of the Horticultural Depart- 

 ment where it may be inspected by 

 anyone interested in peonies. 



A WORD TO ADVERTISERS AND 

 OTHERS. 

 Mail deliveries of third-class matter 

 are already noticeably delayed by the 

 holiday blockade. Parties mailinq 

 electros or photographs for use in our 

 advertising or reading columns should 

 hear this in mind and send a day or 

 two earlier than usual or, still better, 

 use letter postage up to a reasonable 

 amount and, where time is close, add 

 "special delivery" stamps, until the 

 Christmas rush is over.
