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

P. daurica?

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.

The Peony Society uploaded the file: Latest plant list to
Species Peonies International Network (SPIN) in the group Species Peonies International Network (SPIN)
Some 120 plants for now. Not all available for seeds as yet, but species collecting is something that takes years of course…
The time of the winter peonies in Japan is now, try an instagram search for the hashtag 牡丹

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
