Some Remarks on the herbaceous Paeonies, together with a description of most of the Species and Varieties, and a few observations upon their Propagation, Cultivation, &c. By the Conductor. (p. 283-292)
...P. albiflòra var. tartárica.—One of the prettiest of the single flowered varieties. The blossoms have from ten to fifteen petals each, are often in clusters of from two to six on a branch, and of a pale pink or flesh color; the habit of the plant, like the uniflora, is erect and tall, and the flowers have a very showy appearance, from their great number. A native of Siberia, and blossoms from the 8th to the 16th of June. It should be in every collection of any extent.

2. PÆONIA ALBIFLORA. ...
γ. tatarica ; foliolis latioribus planis purpurascentibus, corolla carnea 9—14-petala, stigmatibus carneis, caulibus 2--3-floris.
P. edulis. Paradisus Londinensis, 78.
P. albiflora. Botanical Register, 42.

Mr. Sabine got this variety from Mr. Biggs, who cultivated it in the botanic garden of the late Mr. Swainson of Twickenham. Another plant of the same was presented to him by Sir Joseph Banks, whose hands are always extended to promote objects of science. The original, we believe, was imported by the late Mr. Bell of Brentford, to whom we are indebted for the introduction of several Pæonies, by means of his correspondence with Pallas. It came from Tartary. Its hue, though darker, a good deal resembles that of vestalis; but its flowers are larger, with a greater number of petals, which retain a pale pink colour till they drop. The stigmas are of a pink colour, like those of candida. The figure in the Botanical Register [of P. albiflora] is from a specimen out of Mr. Sabine's collection.

[Joseph Sabine comments on December 20, 1817 on the first volume of De Candolle's Systema Naturale Regni Vegetabilis, "which has just arrived from Paris"]
...He appears to have been induced to notice P. Tatarica solely on the authority of Miller, the plant not being otherwise known to him, for he only refers to Miller's Dict. no. 5, and Miller's Ic. t. 199. Miller says this plant was raised from seed obtained from the Levant, and that there is a double and single variety of it, the figure in his Icones being intended for the double one. M. De Candolle, on the authority of Miller, calls it a native of Tartary, but I cannot find any statement in Miller's Dictionary to justify this supposition. Miller's P. Tatarica is however our P. paradoxa, as such we have referred to his figure, in the synonyms of the double variety; and our P. paradoxa I have before stated to be in my opinion the P. peregrina α. of M. De Candolle.
