I can sit here and drool over these beautiful plants that I can't grow here. Even tree peonies would be pushing the zone here, and I don't have the space or years to waste for those. Sighing!

There are 17 pages of Peonies listed in the database: http://garden.org/plants/searc... but if you don't know the cultivar name you can post photos to the general database entry here: Peonies (Paeonia)

Yes, we Florida people are feeling the jealousy down here. I guess it's payback for us taunting everyone through the winter. Rolling on the floor laughing Seriously, I love the photos. I've only seen a Peony in bloom once when I visited Grandma in WV. It was really beautiful.
