lavender Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Here it is Bon. I posted Bartzella peony last summer. I bought a big pot for an outrageous price (for me anyway) and it did bloom the first year. Later I picked up a single dried up root of Canary Brilliants from a sale table and after 2 years it has bloomed. It has a lot more pink in it than Bartzella. It is more apparent in the bud. The rain has messed up the shape but the buds are all kind of squished. The first picture is of Bartzella, the second of Canary Brilliants and the third of the bud. fadedgenes, steelnut, pstan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavender Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 It just might not be going to bloom until next year. Does it have buds? It should by now. They usually take a couple of years to start blooming or at least mine do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavender Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 Thanks, but it is a camera for idiots. It works fine if I can hold still and don't click the shutter too soon. Sometimes the pictures are out of focus and that isn't easy to do with a camera for idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petee Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Our white one got it's first bloom yesterday. That is one of the very old varieties. I have the same one that developed a pink sport about 20 years ago and every year it gets a little stronger. This year it's blooming right along a blue-purple iris and the combo is so pretty. Guess I should remember to take my camera to the garden. Maybe tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Peonies are beautiful (complete with ants usually). Thanks for sharing the pictures. WMJ77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavender Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 I never really liked the big pink peonies. They always looked like over grown roses without the grace fo the rose but these newer ones are much more interesting. That white one is a stunner.
