Emmy Swan. Outer petals light pink, the whole center 
of the flower yellow with a few splashes of crimson; 
very unusual in color. Fragrant. 
Solo Flight. A very large Japanese type. Flat pale flesh 
guard petals with high center of pale yellow. Very 
popular at Boston Show, 1935. The plant is tall and 
upright and covers itself with bloom; a conspicuously 
beautiful plant in the garden. 
Snowflake. The plant I have under this name (and the 
name is certainly not correct) is of Japanese or Euro- 
pean origin; it seems to be very close to White Lady, 
but I think not fully identical. Anyway it is one of the 
finest of all peonies of the Japanese type. Pure white, 
petals very thick and heavy. Center of closely packed 
yellow staminoid petals. 
PEONY SPECIES 
I can offer a few interesting species some of which are 
not easy to obtain true to name. 
anomala. I can offer a few seedling plants of this inter- 
esting species, which I think I have true to name. It is 
a very different plant from Smouthi, which is often 
sold as anomala. The flowers of the true species are 
purplish in color, somewhat nodding and not much to 
look at, but of botanical interest. 
arietina alba. A very beautiful early species. Flowers 
with a silky sheen. A fine variety. 
cretica. Probably a form of P. arietina. Grayish green 
foliage, light pink flowers. A nice plant and very early. 
decora alba. Another fine early blooming plant. 
Emodi. The Himalayan peony. Very tall, with nodding 
white flowers and extremely handsome foliage. A beau- 
tiful species. 
macrophylla (tomentosa). A very large-leaved species 
from the Caucasus region. Flowers white; one of the 
first of all peonies in bloom. 
Miokosewitschi. The only truly yellow herbaceous peony 
and one of the most beautiful of hardy plants. A very 
early and abundant bloomer. It should be in every 
garden. 
obovata alba (Japan). This is the wild peony of Japan 
and is a pleasant little plant of no very conspicuous 
charm. It occurs also with pink flowers, and is then no 
better. 
officinalis lobata. You may call this simply Paeonia lo- 
bata if you wish. This too is a variable plant from seed.
