The post on their website saying it was for sale looked pretty recent, I wonder if his son is taking over orders. I think I might wait a few months and call. It sucks when your body won't let you do the things you love to do, doesn't it?

Lily, the roots I got from Chateau CharMaron last year were smaller than some and didn't look as nice---that might not mean anything at all, it could be the varieties that I purchased. Most cut off a lot of the smaller roots, she didn't. If the ones I got from her appear to be growing well I'm determined to put in my order. If they look like they're lagging behind the rest I'll hold off. We all took pics of our roots last fall and they're posted in the Roots 2015 string, I'm determined to post pics of as many growing as possible!

LG, I got several from her fall 2013 and a few 2015. The only one I remember for sure that bloomed was P. Of. Mutabilis Plena and it was correctly ID'd. You can see all of the hail damage to the foliage--I took very few pics of entire plants last year because almost all of the plants were impacted. None of the roots I got from her bloomed 1st spring but that's not incredibly uncommon here, unfortunately!


Most of the others were planted in a less than optimum spot and we had a terrible spring anyway, I don't think any others that I got from her bloomed at all last year but all came up. I got Eden's Perfume, Martha Bulloch, Mrs Frank Beach, Mrs James Kelway, Pink Cuddles and Sweet Reward in addition to Mutabilis Plena.

I found this 'Pink Moon' on the Heartland Peony Society Gallary. Has anyone spotted this for sale? I would like one.

I can see why you'd want that one! Rather unique form ( in the picture shown) and color accents.

Another that's on my Wanted list, LG! We should compare lists sometime!
