Finally, Hong’s third volume of ‘Peonies of the world’ has been published. We have some reading to do… It raises P. veitchii from subspecies to species rank and divides all species into seven groups. There’s obviously more in it as well, but we’ve only just received it an hour ago.

Peony season is over here. Here are some images of Old Faithful. An excellent dark red late flowering hybrid. One of the very best thanks to its’ strong stems and other good qualities. It does fade somewhat as you can see from the images below. IMHO it is at its’ best when just open and when placed in a vase the fading goes much more slowly.
