DEEDIE MAY (Vories, 1927) - Double - Pink - White - Early. Tall. This rather queerly named peony is described by Judge Vories as white, but when it first opens it is a very beautiful shade of light pink, nothing washed out about it. If left on the plant it gradually fades to white. It has some red markings on the edges of its petals and is loosely built. Large. Rather flat, white flowers with crimson thread-like on edges of center petals. Occasionally partially streaked with crimson. Strong stems. Manual. M. List in Bulletin 60.
