Baroness Schroeder (Kelway).  9.0.  White.  This is considered one of the finest peonies grown.  When the last Symposium was taken, this variety received a rating of 9.0 after 79 people had voted.  When the buds first open, they are a delicate blush, but the flower soon fades to a milky-white.  This is a variety that should be found in every collection.  It comes into bloom late, after most of the white peonies are gone.

Descriptive List of Chinese Peonies
Baroness Schroeder. (Kelway, 1889.) 9.0.
Double type; very large; late midseason. Pale flesh-white, tinted cream; outer petals frequently shaded with faint pink; fragrant. Tall; floriferous; strong stems. Excellent foliage.
This variety develops a large, funnel-shaped crown when fully open, and while classed as a white peony it is sometimes very pale pink. The habit of the plant and the lasting quality of the blooms make it good for both garden decoration and cut-flowers. Opens better in water than in the field.
