Hi Trond,

I've re-posted so hopefully it works this time.

That pic was taken a few days ago and the Paeonia cambessedesii is now flowering,

cheers

Yes, Trond, it would be worth

Yes, Trond, it would be worth growing for the foliage alone!

Here it is this morning in full flower - I'm not the only one to enjoy it!

cheers

Gorgeous! That is amazing foliage. If I have room for one more peony, it should be that one!

Good news, Lori,

Marcus Harvey has it on his latest seed-list:http://hillviewrareplants.com.au/

(if he's sold out let me know in case we get any seed set here!)

I can understand that bee, the flowers are to be enjoyed at close encounter! They're not second to the leaves.

Now it works

The foliage of the cambessedesii is magnifique!
