I am looking for an Itoh that is salmony/coralish like Coral sunset. Old Rose Dandy seems to be a good option, but I am not sure. It also seems a little hard to find and I am wondering if that is because it is older or just not that wonderful. What are your thoughts on it?

I just bought an Old Rose Dandy Itoh from Lilygarden for $24.

I have both and definitely New Millennium is nicer. Both are available from several reliable sources.

SoCal,
I have decided to get the Old Rose Dandy from LilyGarden too. I am getting some of her lilies that are amazing. She has even got some bred by the guy who did Stargazer. She also has some of her own that are just lovely.

Annie, I picked a few other herbaceous peonies while I ordered Old Rose Dandy too. But I just looked at her Oriental Lilies, I like Casa Blanca. Maybe next year, too late for this year. I have no space anyway.

I really like Old Rose Dandy. Mine is 7 years old this year.

Thanks Frank, makes me feel like I will love it!

SoCal..I hear ya on the space! I was actually looking for lilies, when I found she had peonies too. then Tracey posted her roots and ...

Laura from Garden Answer, just adds another bed or extends one...lawn, who needs lawn. But I have been listening to people talk about getting themselves in over their heads in gardening, so I am trying to get a balance.
