Website/Catalog (1926) Page(s) [7]. The Japanese peonies are so called because the Japanese have given them more attention than any other people. They are the third stage of doubling. The yellow stamens have become thickened and are almost petals. They may be told from the singles by the fact that they never bear pollen, while the singles always do. They do make seed very freely. Isami-Jishi (generally known as Isani-Gidui), Toro-no-maki and Yeso are the best whites.
