There is no example of the species [P. peregrina] among his specimens in the Banksian herbarium ; the only sheet there on which Miller has written the name P. peregrina bears two small specimens, both received by him from the Paris garden ; these two specimens belong to two distinct species ; neither of the two is the "red peony of Constantinople." One, the more meagre of the two, appears to be but a form of our common garden Paeony with quite glabrous leaves ; the other represents a type which occurs in the mountains of southern France and corresponds most closely with P. monticola, Jordan. Into the pitfall thus prepared the first to stumble was the editor of this work, at t. 1050 of which Sims in 1807 published as P. peregrina, " upon the authority of the Banksian herbarium," not the Byzantine plant to which the name belongs, but the plant of Provence and Languedoc which Miller had mistaken for it. The elder Decandolle followed Sims in the third edition of the Flore Française in 1815 and maintained the same attitude in his Systema in 1818. The error, as errors will, has survived in many subsequent publications, and although the conception of the species to which the name P. peregrina has, since 1807, been misapplied may at times have varied, the Balkan plant which Miller so designated has always been excluded from it. This is doubtless partly due to the fact that, as early as 1818, the right of that plant to rank as a species had been revindicated by Anderson who, overlooking the confusion created in this Magazine, renamed it P. decora ; partly to the circumstance that in the same year Decandolle, in his Systema, confused the Byzantine plant with P. lobata, Desf., a name under which, nowithstanding the trouble Decandolle took to rectify his error in the Prodromus in 1824, our species is still often grown in gardens.

[In 1918; "Curtis' Botanical Magazine" admits that its description and picture of P. peregrina in 1807 (tab 1050) is erroneous and assigns this to P. monticola, Jordan, i.e. P. officinalis var, huthii. Hong De-Yuan, in his "Peonies of the World" (2000), however, states that tab 1050 refers to P. arietina.]

[From "Les Pivoines herbacées", d'après M. William Wood, Horticulteur, à Holdgate]

La classification horticole des pivoines est basée sur le temps de leur floraison :
Le premier groupe comprend les plantes qui fleurissent depuis la seconde semaine d'avril jusqu'en mai;
Le seconde groupe est formé des plantes en fleur de la première semaine de mai jusqu'en juin;
Le troisième groupe renferme les pivoines en fleur de juin jusqu'en juillet.

PREMIER GROUPE : Fleurs ouvertes de la seconde semaine d'avril jusqu'en mai.

Ces pivoines se distinguent de celles des autres sections par leur allure moins robuste et parleur croissance plus droite et plus compacte; elles n'ont guère , la plupart, qu'un pied et demi à deux pieds de hauteur.....
Le Paeonia arietiena peregrina compacta se reconnaît à son port droit, presque dressé, de deux pieds de hauteur, les feuilles d'un vert foncé, les fleurs nombreuses, en coupe, d'un pourpre vif et passant à la teinte rose.

Some Remarks on the herbaceous Paeonies, together with a description of most of the Species and Varieties, and a few observations upon their Propagation, Cultivation, &c. By the Conductor. (p. 283-292)
P. peregrìna var. compácta.—Densely dwarf and compact in its mode of growth, and is interesting, from the small stature of the plant, which produces numerous small, single, pale purple, flowers, at the same time as the last variety. It is ornamental in the border, and although its flowers, like all the single ones, are very fugitive, it is a desirable variety.
