Tree peonies are one of my favourite plants too, but I don’t have a yellow one. Several years ago when I first found out about these plants Most of them were being imported from China and the labelling to identify varieties was notoriously inaccurate. The yellow one I ordered, when it bloomed for the first time, turned out to be the palest pink. The supplier offered to replace it if I sent that one back but, I had waited 2 years for the first bloom and it was beautiful so I just kept it. I’m happy to be able to live vicariously through your pretty yellow one. Do you know what variety yours is?
This is my “yellow” tree peony LOL: https://365project.org/gardencat/365/2016-05-30
I do, David - I'm always learning! I now know that this tree peony is not one, but two plants - by noticing that some flowers have orange centres and others have yellow.
