Coral Peony

19 comments


I just wanted to show how this peony fades from a warm pinknsh/coral colour to very beige-y colour. I have 3 peomies in this coral family with a slightly different name and they all do it.

Mine does that too. I've got Hawaiian Coral. It is a feature of this group.

I’m so envious…. Looks gorgeous. Got one given for my birthday back in March and understand they take a while to settle and mine looks very sad. Looking at your lovely peony has reminded me that I need to think again and give it a second chance. I have planted mine in a pot in john innes no 3 compost with its tubers protruding on the surface. Have you any suggestions? Thank you for sharing.

Very nice flowers! Lots of flowers, roses especially, fade as they get older. Some never change, like a red Geranium I have on the balcony, when the petals fall after a few days they are exactly the same colour though so do lose colour as they age & dry out.

Great variation of colour. The third pic showing the flowers’
centre is lovely.

Really beautiful! and you get several for the price of one too - that's what I call value!

Its beautiful in all three stages, I have a white/pink one but though it has many stems it has only produced one bloom for me this year.....

I'm thankful its taken in my garden Klahanie, I had a beautiful red one for years, in fact it was here when we moved in, lost it during a very bad winter a few years back and I cannot get another red to survive , I keep trying....

I wanted to save the bottom image to my photo album, but wasn’t able to. Still, that’s ok, it’s your photo after all. I just love the detailed centre.

Thank you for this instruction but I don’t have a computer, only an IPad . Images are saved by just pressing on the image. I tried a few other things but no luck. It doesn’t really matter, I can enjoy your pics on GoY at any time, Ty.
