Luit
More marvelous marvel
With a name like "bowl of cream" I would have expected a different colour.

Wonderful pictures Luit, they reminded me of our trips to Estonia where every garden we visited had at least one peony and Tallin Botanic Garden had a huge collection. What a pity they take up so much space.

You are right Joakim,  Bowl of Cream should be cream.
This one must be wrong. Thanks!

Luit,
In your message of 31st of May you have a picture of a peony which you called Louise.
From the picture it could well have been : Cora Louise. This is an intersectional peony= a cross between a herbaceous peony and a tree peony, and like the 'famous' Bartzella also made by Roger Anderson.

Yes André, I was thinking about that too, but  I wasn't sure.
I couldn't find a picture of Cora Louise to make a proper compare, so I left
the name which was at the plant in the show.

So many beauties! I love Paeonies since my childhood. Thank you for the show, Luit.
