In certain manuals the horticultural varieties of peonies are listed under definite 

 species or groups. There are numerous reports of severe infestations referring 

 merely to peony or else to varieties commonly listed under P. albi flora. It is the 

 opinion of the Division of Fruit and Vegetable Crops and Diseases, Bureau of 

 Plant Industry, that the pedigrees of most varieties are too complex and usually 

 too obscure for accurate botanical classification.
