Hi
I did ask last year about double lacti. cultivars that due to nonideal or even bad conditions become single.
Now second plant from different source (but maybe originally the same) both came in a package for 2€ so I did not expect gold but the double that the picture showed. I aimed to impress my-mother-law.
I got this plant that I show below.
I am surprised to see this one and I wonder how come. I did not expect commercial growers to have this plant and the old double ones are not expensive so I really wonder.
The plant is nice but do not impress that much.
I might need to bring a double from Sweden and see how it is performing.
I have watered all plants much more this year and they all look much better.

Can I hope for it to become double?

Kind regards
Joakim

Joakim, as a purist I say more singles less doubles!
Hans ,thanks for shwoing pics of 2 species I am growing from AGS seed. Some will flower this year, the others maybe next year- I am praying the seed came from you so they will be like your plants! My biggest fear is they will be double P.lactiflora hybrids- sorry Joakim  ;)

Simon ,

I agree with you with doubles and hybrids ......

My dissapointment was very big as I have grown from seeds P.lactiflora ( w.c. from Halda  ;D ;D ;D ) .....as the plants has flowered it was a silly double P. lactflora ( white ) ...and never collect in wild .

Maybe you have luck _ I have send in last years always seeds of my peonies to AGS,NARGS and SRGC ....

Hans, then my plants may indeed be your babies- the oldest will be 4 years old this year and have their first flowerbuds showing. We also have P.rockii from seed, which will flower this year. One flowered last year and I think it was true. Do you grow this species too?
