The site is up but you still cannot order. The plants are listed with about 95% priced. Several beautiful new varieties.

I saw there Mrs J H Neeley and Virginia Emerson but today they both dissapeared 😏 I wanted both of them.

I was disappointed to see Mrs. Neeley gone as well, Inese. They said they had very limited numbers of some roots.

The catalogue is now live and open to orders! I came away with Faithful Dream, Kirinmaru, and Solange. Was reallllllly tempted by Kayleigh Ann and Pastelorama, but with the phytosanitary certificate and the USD to CAD exchange, I just can't justify it! Looking forward to see what everyone orders! Good luck!

Dr. J. H. Neely and Mrs. J. H. Neely are different peonies and I was them both before the catalog was open. They are both registered and I understand why Mrs. J. H. Neely is so wanted.

I ordered Sandra Marie and Coral Scout. I wanted Mrs JH Neeley, but it was gone before I could order it.

I hope Juergen recognizes the demand for it, and propagates more for future sales.

I was tempted by KimSue, but that price was high!!

Have you ever seen Mrs Neeley offered anywhere else, LG? I don't know if I have or not, got it confused with Dr Neeley...

Mrs JH Neeley has been on my wishlist for a few years Liz, and I haven't seen it offered anywhere else.
I am really disappointed that I missed getting it this year, but at least we know Hollingsworth has it.

D'Oh!

LG, maybe it's worth it to call them and ask? I also don't see Sandra Marie any more in the catalog but there are a few peonies with the mark "Sold out" which means not all peonies disappear from the list once they are sold out for some reason Shrug! .

I also wonder why some peonies are not anymore on list and some Sold out. What's the difference. I think some wholeasaler could bought all Mrs.Neeleys. Never seen in other shops this peony too.

I ordered Artemis, Mrs. A.S. Gowen and Sarah M. Napier. I too lost out on Mrs. Neeley but hopefully it will return later in the year when they do a field count.🤞
Nick, you got some great ones today and hopefully will acquire the other two someday soon. They are spectacular!

Inese, you make a good point. I wonder if the wholesalers get priority over retail customers?

Hopefully more peonies will be added after the summer count. That's when I placed a big order last year.

I did a search for Mrs. JH Neeley yesterday and one of the "what's on your wishlist" strings came up from when you first joined us here, LG! You mentioned Mrs. JH Neeley in it! Was fun re-reading the old conversations. We talked about Tinka Phillips in that string as well....I think it was from fall 2015 or early spring 2016, know it was before the 2016 APS convention because I dropped Tinka Phillips from my wishlist after that trip. Probably unwise because I never actually saw a bloom.

Lol Liz!! I've come to believe that Tinka Phillips only exists in Conrad's garden! The photos he has posted are gorgeous

I wish someone had a peony he wanted and would trade for a piece of Tinka.

The other two that have been on my wishlist with no sightings are Fragrant Bouquet and White Delight.

Please keep them on your radar and let me know if you see either of them.

A & D carried Fragrant Bouquet, or at least I hope it's FB! I've had it since fall 2014 and it's budded out pretty much every year but it blooms so late it never opens. It's supposed to be mid-late but......

I've never heard of White Delight, I'll have to look it up!

I tried to look up White Delight but can't find a pic anywhere; the description sounds great! Have you seen it, LG?

Liz, why didn't buds of FB bloomed? Late storms? heat? Didn't you tell that late peonies don't bloom in your garden? I hope this pattern can change at least for one-two seasons.

Hi Liz, I can't remember where the White Delight came from. It may have been in a peony book. Did you look it up on Carsten's Database? It sounds wonderful.
