President Taft (Blaauw 1909) ML-L. Full double, many light pink petals make up a very large, exhibition quality flower. The American Peony Society cultivar checklist declares this is a synonym for Reine Hortense (Calot 1857) but does not say whether because too similar to tell them apart or re-registered by mistake. At any rate, ours wins blue ribbons and is an excellent performer. |

Kortmann (1998) |
'Reine Hortense' (syn. 'President Taft') (Calot, Frankrijk, 1857) Bloemen roze, tepalen sterk gefranst, randen zilverachtig, gevuld, geur sterk onaangenaam, middelvroeg; bladeren fors, groen, gaaf , hoogte 80 cm; bloern en bladstengels stevig; vertakking matig tot goed. Een al zeer oude cultyar, die nog steeds in het sortiment aanwezig is. De bloemen zijn heel aantrekkelijk, maar de plant is enigszins gevoelig voor Botrytis. |
