With some difficulty when publishing it, here are the results from our latest year of trialling ULO storage of peonies.

P. macrophylla from North Eastern Turkey. A research project is going on there to classify and describe the peonies in that region. These are some images from plants growing there in nature. All plants in all populations visited so far have glabrous carpels, thus they are all P. macrophylla. Otherwise not much can be concluded yet, the research is…Read More

When you start a new podcast about plants, what better way could there be but to start with peonies? Well done Sally Flatman and good luck with the following episodes!

A bit behind schedule with asking the people growing plants to collect seeds this Spring for the ones requesting them. But we still have some time, peonies are only slowly starting to grow. In the meantime: here are some images of P. mascula ssp mascula from Turkey, a plant I grew but which probably died during Summer (it disappeared, then some…Read More

Image I saw on a page. I think experts can make a better species definition from the visual.

It could be, but without the leaflets it’s hard to say. If from Turkey it could be P. arietina, P. daurica or P. mascula ssp mascula. For P. arietina you would need hairs on the stems and leaf stalks and backside of the leaflets. The others will be without hairs on those places. P. daurica will have only 9 leaflets on the lowest leaf and should…Read More

You are very knowledgeable. How did you get so much information? Congratulations. Thank you for this good information. If this information had been released as open source, perhaps much newer species could have emerged. I believe it is useful information.

Thank you for the compliment although I don’t consider myself an expert. If you go to ‘species’ in the menu above, you can read quite a bit about the peony species. It is true that most publications about peonies are not exactly open source. Some garden books are not too expensive, but the specialized botanical books or articles are usually way to…Read More

Difficult to say really. All we see are tomentose carpels, dark pink stigmas and a pink flower. You can exclude many peonies, it’s not a tree peony for example as there is no ‘sheath’ around the carpels. And the species with normally a different color or glabrous carpels can also be excluded, but several remain. Some possibilities: P. mascula ssp…Read More
