Susan .
Yes I know this names Sheriff & Ludlow ( from the firstdescription ).
We have here in Germany sometimes problems with this plants -because they are always damaged from frosts -I have to cut in every year frozen dead branches ....
Also I have lost a other plant of it ( from the same size ) before two years complete .
The problem is this plant is always very late ( mostly in November green ) and than came the frosts....
So I was surprised to see the big plant from Maggi !
Best wishes
Hans

Dear all thanks for the lovely pics. It is wonderful to see.
I thought I would only have foliage on my Paeonia but there were a bud on one.
I was thrilled but did not know which of the three I bought it would be.
It was neither? It is nice but I wonder if it will turn out to be a double one or not. I planted it 6 weeks ago and kept it in a pot. Too small I must confess but I have it temporary on the balcony so space is very limited.
I will plant it out in the ground but wonder if this herbaceous Paeonia can take full sun? I mean FULL sun, maybe a bit of afternoon shadow if I plant them slightly different place. The flower is nice but the second day (today) it is even more open as if it is about to close? Tomorrow will tell!
Can this single be a double when settled?
Kind regards
Joakim

Hans, I love each flower better than the last....what a joy it would be to see the glory that is your garden when these gems are in bloom
Chocolate Soldier is new to me and very handsome.
I do like the artist and the musician you sent me the other day, too
I hope you don't mind if I show them?

Hans - We grow Paeonia lutea ludlowii here in Nova Scotia, probably for 10 or more years. It kept getting winter damage as you have experienced for a long time. However the last 3 or 4 years it has been ok and is now 2.5 meters high. It has never flowered.
A friend in the even colder Annapolis Valley has some grown from seed from Jack Drake's nursery that has not shown winter damage and has flowered every year. Provenance is obviously very important but where the Drake plant came from is unknown to me - perhaps as Susan mentioned, from the the Ludlow & Sherriff collection.

Hi! I returned from my garden, there were May Day vacances there, took some pics of my plants. May be it's late already but I risk to post you my Paeonias pics just faded
I want notice this year spring is abnormally rainy in our dry climate as usually. But this weather contributes to especially magnificent flowering of P. daurica from Crimea.
Nevertheless, endless rains didn't worsen P. tenuifolia flowering. On pics it's my 8-years clump of this species en masse

A nice display there Dimitri. If it is any consolation apart from a hot few days last week my Spring has been damp too.

Maggy! Many thanks! But it's in a flower from early spring till end of May. I grow only bulbs and some spring-flowering plants like paeonias. All rest time - it's dry and very hot summer with no rains
David! many thanks too! I want tell that as usually after winter in my garden summer comes quickly, and we have there very short spring
But this year it's an exception, but many tulips species and hybrides suffer strongly from fungi.
