Paeonies

I love them.

This was sold as a 'Sword Dance' lactiflora cultivar but it ain't. Come on boffins, go for it.

Incidentally it is divine and slightly perfumed. More piccys soon

 

Try looking in this company's list.

Nope no luck there either Palustris, nor on the following interesting link

Any offers, I'd be pleased to track it down

 

Still looking through the catalogues! Most of the ones I can see of that colour do not have that central 'boss' of pink petaloids.

Here's the clump. It'd not easy to see but they don't all have the central boss, only about half of them, though they are variable within the plant, rather than being two different cultivars. Very odd, but rather gorgeous.

 

How about this?

looks hopeful to me Sue. I'll give it a gander later. Off to mow some lawns!
