Paeonia 2020

The pink and white rockii are simply stunning. I must try to see if I can get one! Always want one.

Received as ruprechtiana - but I have some doubts. What do you say?

Some Paeonias:
Paeonia arietina alba was a gift of the late plantsman Ron Beeston,
generous and unforgetable

[Leena]

White P.arietina is beautiful and P.officinalis from Lake Garda has such pretty petals, unusual.

[Yann]

your officinalis seems to have a virus, does the bottom leaves look healthy?

Yann,
I am wondering why you think the paeony has a virus - is it the Lake Garda one? Is it the patterning on the outer edge of the petals?

Yann,

Yes, i've seen thousands officinalis in Monte Baldo, Garda but no one with such pattern.
The Alfalfa mosaic virus can attack first roots, then only the flowers and the next year the leaves.
It's known to affect the petal's edges but may be i'm wrong and gonna send your photo to an expert in vegetal diseases.

Paeonia tenuifolia ssp. lithophila.

Finally some clear days and flowers are fully open.
