Leon, is the Yedo one that you got at the auction or direct from Irene?

Lovely pics--you have gorgeous peonies.

Now I'm ticked off with myself for not getting pics of the brilliant red Scarlet O'Hara while it was in bloom. Quite a sight.

I got Yedo directly from Irene. The photo is from the plant that I divided and donated to the auction. I think that plant was purchased by Don H. There may be another plant that I can donate this fall. Yedo is really double. Probably the most double of any intersectional I have found. Irene said she decided to not register this plant because there were already enough good yellow intersectional peonies in commerce.

Leon, you have peonies to die for...OMG I can't beieve how beautiful they are...I will post mines when they are in bloom, they are nothing quite as beautiful as yours since it's a new garden. I would eventually get there.

WOW! They are all just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

I think as usual I will leave the intersectionals to others even it it is Irene's. As you know I like peonies that it would be possible to use for breeding.

Now that you have tossed out this tibit maybe the dinner will be packed.

Lovely photos. Thanks for sharing.

My Peonies are just budding out, only the Fernleaf is almost fully open. Another day or two, should be quite the show. Cora Fay the coral color one, is usually first of the Herbacous, but a white one is about even, so the race is on!

I would move out of So Cal just to grow those peonies. They are so lovely!

Peonyman, Red Charm seems to have a neat growing habit. Does it need staking? I don't necessarily look for HUGE blooms. The flower head looks to be a medium size. Is that true?
