Paeonia ostii & dad :-)
What peony is 'Jenny'?
I saw this Paeonia in a couple of gardens near Gothenburg when I was on the AGS trip last year. They were calling it Paeonia iranica. Is this the one you are growing, Janis?
Picea and Pinus both are same as both have needle like leaves...
'Jenny' came from 'The Plantsmen' nursery of Eric Smith and Jim Archibald. In the Spring 2010 newsletter of the HPS Peony Group Judy Templar reported that she asked Jim about it and he thought that it had been raised from seed sent to them by Vera Frazer Mackie who gardened beside Belfast Lough in Northern Ireland. He thought the seed was labelled as from a wittmanniana hybrid but that Jenny looked more as if it had some influence of P. obovata or even P. cambessedesii.
