We cannot give a list of more than fourteen varieties of peonies which we would recommend for cut flower purposes out of the list we are now growing.

The list is as follows: Amabilis Grandiflora, white, very large, double, fringed petals, fine, very sweet; Caroline Mather, purple crimson, large, double and very dark; Delicatissima, rose, large, full, fine, sweet; Duchesse de Nemours, rose-pink, very large, double, sweet, one of the best; Elegans, outside petals dark pink, large salmon center, loose, fine, sweet; Festiva Maxima, creamy white with small center of carmine, round, early, in clusters, sweet; Francoise Ortegat, dark purple crimson, very large, fine, deep, double, and sweet; Fulgida, very dark crimson, good; Humei, rose, full, large, late, one of the best; La France, pink outside petals, with yellowish center, very fine; Perfection, outside petals rose lilac, inside salmon, sweet; Reine Hortense, pink, large, full globular, fine, fragrant; Triumph du Nord, violet rose, lilac shade; Victoria, rose, center yellowish.

Delicatissima. Holland list. By some considered identical with Floral Treasure. This is a mistake. Delicatissima has been grown many years. Floral Treasure is of recent introduction by Rosenfield. He never had a Delicatissima on his place, never heard of that variety till years after the introduction of Floral Treasure. They may bear some resemblance, but they are not identical. Plant them side by side and note the difference. Delicatissima is described as soft rose.
