I love a simple white flower . . .

Me, too, but I've just put out a query on this peony on the Questions section as I suspect it isn't what I ordered. But that's fine, I love it anyway! Just want confirmation 'from them what know' one way or the other.

it does look like the white form, going by the leaves. I sent you a link to the P emodi page on the RHS site but its here again for you.

Thanks, SBG. I've tried to compare the leaves. (More on the query page).

It's lovely Ange!

Glad you like it, Janey. I'm trying to build up a small collection of the small species ones and am a complete novice, so order on trust! The 2 that have flowered so far have exceeded my expectations.

A great close up, Ange! It’s a pretty, clean white too.

A gorgeous flower, just wish the flowers lasted longer.

Never seen a Peony like that before. Perhaps you have a special plant there Ange. Did you find out any information on it?

Well, Linda, I ordered a P. veitchii and all the details from the supplier said it was pink. Hence my surprise at this. I put a question out and the consensus is that it is Veitchii var. alba which is less usual. I think this correct looking at info. and pics. online.
My confusion has been confounded by the fact that I 'discovered' another Veichii in the g'house which is too small to flower! I have found an invoice for 1 plant but not 2, so have obviously had a 'senior moment' with my records. Maybe that's the pink one I had in my head and expected to see!
