1st year blooming in my garden for Lullaby Coos. Planted it fall 2014 so impressed that it bloomed at all last spring. Sorry, not the best photo but I'm not the best photographer!
Here's one of my favorite 1st spring blooms from last year, might be more light pink than you want but the 1st spring bloom was GORGEOUS! Chiffon Parfait, don't think it's supposed to be fragrant, though. One of the biggest, prettiest first year blooms I had last spring, performed better than Pastelegance and Sonoma Halo....I lied, sorry! Just checked the peony database and it IS supposed to be fragrant. I'll try to remember to check this year!
Both actually stood up well to all of the crazy hail, rain and winds we had last spring/summer.
Chinook did very well, too.
