Command Performance is my favorite red bomb! Hope you get the full fade effect, SoCal! Like having a new peony open every day, so lovely!

I agree Command Performance has not only a lovely bomb form but also is beautiful in fading. Looks like a great peony!

Thanks everyone, Alexander Woollcott fades pretty fast.
Here is Command Performance today, the heat wave is coming tomorrow, not sure if some of my peonies will survive. I think this is it, almost 7-8 days after opening.

I pinched off Pastelorama yesterday, the flowers tend to ball here when it's wet and damp.
