Thank you for your reply, and I will try an internet search for Hillary. I purchased this three years ago, and this is the first time that it has had any blooms. The name tag on the plant was Sarah Bernhardt.

Surely not Sarah Bernhardt. You’re lucky, the seller has made an error to his detriment. Sarah Bernhardt is the most widely grown herbaceous peony, and also the cheapest one. All possible other peonies are more expensive. Intersectionals are far superior (better foliage, better stems) and more expensive.

This Peony was given to me 2004 by Jenny Archbald the widow of Jim Archbold. She said Jim grew the plant from seed collected by himself reference JJA19.199. It had never flowered. The pot was labelled 19.199

The photo of the plant in flower was taken in May 2021.
This year it has 12 flower buds and will…Read More2 Comments-
It is Paeonia wendelboi indeed. Very pretty and still very rare (and very expensive), not many people grow it so I’m sure there are many peony species lovers that are envious of your mature plant. The reference you give is to this species and in the Talysh mountains you have P. daurica ssp tomentosa on the side of the Caspian Sea at more or less…Read More

Still featured on the front page: Paeonia broteri. An Iberian (Spain/Portugal) peninsula endemic locally known as Rosa albardeira (Portugal) or Rosa de Alejandria (Spain). My plant is still small and needs some more years to grow to maturity clearly. Rather late flowering for a species, but it does look quite healthy.

From the city of Kharkiv, eastern Ukraine and under siege unfortunately. A wonderful video showing the young foliage of many species.

Hello! I am wondering if anyone can help me find a few varieties of Klehm’s cultivars – Spumone Whisper above all else, but there are a few others I’d like to add to my garden as well. I have loved peonies all my life and have grown them for about 15 years now and never knew until recently about the Klehm family, peony hybridizers and purveyors,…Read More

I don’t know that variety, but the herbaceous peony plants of Klehm’s were taken over by Hollingsworth nursery, so that will be your best bet to obtain those cultivars.

Have a ‘Mary Gretchen’ and in late summer 2020 I see a lot of ants around the root, hade to dig it up and the root was damage so I cut away all damage part and got five small roots. Planted after some days and last year all grow up and now they are on there way again! From 1 to 5 plants, happy!

Brassy Lady. A lutea hybrid with very beautiful flowers, although at times they are a bit hidden.

It clearly is an intersectional (=herbaceous x tree peony), that’s for sure. There are nowadays many of those and many are quite alike. If you’re looking for an ID, it’s unlikely that it is very new because new ones are very expensive and one usually doesn’t forget the things that you pay high prices for. So if it’s one of the earliest…Read More
