Thanks SoCal. Good to know.

It's amazing that Francis Willard is still out there, next year it should be good, it's been cold at night, we got chill hours last night so that may explain why.

My NOID herb peony, it could be Dorodell, but the tag is very fade right now and it's first year so it won't look like what it's supposed to be anyway.

That looks like Raspberry Charm.

Thank You Karen, Raspberry Charm then, but I don't recall buying one. I need to check my record.

Maybe it is Alexander Woollcott. The form looks very similar to it.

Here is a pic of my Rasp. Charm for comparison.

My Alexandra WoollCott is in a different bed. Let me check my record, but I'm glad it's Raspberry Charm because I don't have to buy it.

I found it, it's Cytherea from Gilbert and Wild, I did buy one from them. Mystery solved.

Yes, that does look a lot like Cytherea. It's a bit red in your pic so it throws me off.

It's pink now, it's red yesterday, but really thanks for helping.
Edit to add a picture of Cytherea in the afternoon, about 2pm, it's already pink.

So pretty,SoCal!

Cytheria is a favorite, such a gorgeous color and bloom! Congratulations SoCal, you are surely proving the nay sayers wrong! Love seeing your beautiful growth and flowers!

Thanks Liz, I made mistake with my peonies that I bought from Costco and that's how it all started. Another plus for peonies for SoCal is that they are drought tolerant. We will have to go into the conserve water mode soon.

Cytherea is fading nicely today

Beautiful!

Thanks LG!
Cytherea is a pink color in real life, but my iPhone was unable to capture it.
Here it is today with my camera.

Very nice SoCal. 'Cytherea', I always enjoy the perfect cupping of the petals too, in addition to the color.

Thanks Tracey, this peony is fading nicely, 7 days and here it is today. It is a huge flower.

It's beautiful, Socal! Love Cytherea even more when it fades to this color!

Thanks Karen, Cytherea is fade but still ok.
