JAPANESE PEONIES 
This is a type of Herbaceous Peony developed from the single type. 
In the process of development, the stamens and anthers have lost their 
character as such, and have become transformed into narrow, thick 
petaloids or into narrow petals tipped with vestiges of the yellow 
anthers without pollen, and are surrounded by tive or more broad 
guard petals. 
They are strong growers, and many fine varieties, embracing a 
wide range of color, have been imported to this country from Japan; 
some seedlings of exceptional merit have also been produced by 
American growers. Grow under the same conditions as the so-called 
Chinensis Peonies and require the same treatment.
