In Loudon's Arbor. et Frut. Brit. I (1838) 254, we read: "North of London the largest plant (Moutan papaveracea) in the country is at the seat of Sir Abraham Hume, at Wormleybury, in Hertfordshire. It is 7 feet high, and forms a bush 14 feet in diam., after having been planted thirty years. It stands the winter, in general, very well. In 1835 this plant brought 320 flowers to perfection; but it has been known to bear three times that number".
