Tree peony- detail of the flower.

wow, that's spectacular! does it have perfume? mind you, being as big as that is probably enough to attract pollinators!

Yes, it has a very nice perfume. Garden air is filled with it in the evening.

Beautiful !

just redalised that my gardener gave me a tree peony shoot a couple of weeks ago, not even got round to adding it to "my garden" yet, I hope it turns out like this!

Tree peonies grow up into the size of medium shrub. Which is very impressive, when it blooms.

Thank you, Amy and Fran.

thanks Kat, I'll kep an eye on mine :)
