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

P. arietina has either finer, somewhat more divided leaflets or wider, less divided leaflets depending on the geographical location, this one clearly has the wider ones. Not shown here is that P. arietina…Read More

Paeonia veitchii flowers for the first time. A plant bought to Gerhard Raschun. 3 years ago.
2 CommentsI also noticed that P. veitchii is somewhat capricious. I thought I had lost it as all other species had already flowered while P. veitchii had not started to grow. In the wild this plant grows on limestone in wet areas. I was in NW Yunnan in 2009 where it grows and it does not freeze at 2000m and more higher particularly under the forest cover.…Read More

Maybe soon photos of 2 other peonies. One of them did flower 2 years ago but I don’t know what it is. I got it from a french collector who himself grew it from seed received from a botanical garden as “Paeonia cambessedesii” but was suspicious on the name (his was right). The second one is a peony I originaly got from seed received from a…Read More

Nice clear pictures, Alain 🙂 I have much difficulty growing P. veitchii / P. anomala. Either they don’t grow at all or they only start growing when most of the other peonies are already flowering. I’ve always thought it is because of too few cold here compared to the regions where it normally grows, but since you’re more Southernly than I am,…Read More
