Valkyrie, a Bill Seidl plant. Very dark red on floppy stems unfortunately.
Nikolai Vavilov, an extremely sturdy plant with very large single red flowers, bred by Harald Fawkner. Somewhat resembling The Little Corporal, but it is much taller. Named for a Russian botanist who fell out of favour of the Communist leadership undeservingly.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_VavilovRiver Tud again (outside growing this time), an as yet unregistered plant from Harald Fawkner. A very attractive, brilliant red colour on sturdy stems with dark green leaflets. Somewhere between single and semi-double. Don’t know what its parents are, but P. peregrina surely features in it, as the foliage is reminiscent of it.
The lockdown and gardening.
https://www.economist.com/britain/2020/05/02/a-nation-of-gardenersPVBM002, a good early single white, standing straight up, large white buds.
A small documentary about a peony farm in my own country. In French, but you get to see several flowering plants with their cultivar name.
Daedalus, a Daphnis hybrid. A very large plant here. Reliable and a very intense red colour.
Hélène Martin. Actually a ‘Lutea-hybrid’ and it shows in the hanging flowers unfortunately. Otherwise a pretty, large, floriferous and healthy plant.
Some seedlings flowering for the first time here. Nothing much can be said about them yet, but at least they have a nice flower.
PVBM003, Pink Vanguard X Buoy Master that is. A semi-double, early and very sturdy pale pink with a nice fragrance. Other years it has been more double than this, something I’ve seen with other varieties as well this season. Perhaps the extremely dry and hot Summer last year?
