CECILIA (Saunders, 1940) - Single - Cherry Red. Hybrid. Enormous goblet of fringed bright cherry red petals. Albiflora x lobata. List in Bulletin 91.

CECILIA(1940) (P) - Single lobata pink.

Cecilia (1940) Deeper at base of petals, and prettily flared, inside and out . [Albiflora x lobata - the great race of „lobata hybrids“ This group contains many beautiful pink and red tones so long desired in the Chinese peonies; salmon, coral, rose and deep cherry pinks, to clear bright crimsons, with no hint of purple and never a bad color in all the hundreds that have bloomed. I think this is the most brilliant and e effective strain of herbaceous hybrids yet produced. . Their season is generally M. They set hardly any seed, but their F2's may be interesting. About a dozen reds, and almost thirty pinks have been introduced, many of them so similar to one another that I have now tried to sort them roughly into color groups. The pinks especially, fade off as the flower ages , into pale peach shades, so that a mature plant will have flowers of many differing tones, but all harmonious [..] are single except when otherwise noted. Shades of rose ]
