Chinese Peony, Garden Peony 'Candeur'

Lee R. Bonnewitz Iris and Peony Catalog of 1928 in Van Wert, OH:
CANDEUR (Dessert). A medium tall, light pink Peony whose guards a...Read Morere made up of very wide petals, and whose center is a mixture of both wide and narrow petals mingled with stamens. The main blooms are rather too heavy for the stems, but after the main blooms have been clipped away, the blooming laterals give a pleasing effect in the garden. Not as good a landscape variety as WELCOME GUEST, EXQUISITE or PHYLLIS KELWAY, but still a far better landscape variety than PASTEUR or JUBILEE. $4.00
