Beautiful! Dianne that noid looks like it could be Do Tell.

Do any of you grow any that are variable? I have one that was given to me originally as a teen, and have been carrying around some ever since. It is a Japanese/anemone bloom, and some years it has pink guard petals and a creamy yellow center poof, other times the center is pink. For many years I kept thinking I was just mistaken, that the peony I was thinking of must be somewhere else. After moving a start to an area I wanted a pink, it bloomed with a cream/yellow center and I thought I was losing it. I was considering moving it again, and the next year it bloomed pink, and I was really confused. Started looking through old photos and realized the thing was going back and forth! Then one year it produced both colors at the same time- I felt like that plant was playing a practical joke on me, LOL.
