A peony from the yard of a WWII veteran that my parents purchased 2 years ago. Light pink guard petals, white to cream center (bomb type) with a hint of red. Thanks.

Gray, I have these, too. Freebies from a friend.
No name. Lovely fragrance.

Check out Peony Philomele. Not positive it's that, but does resemble it.
