This peony was sold to me as a "Charles Burgess"....definitely NOT a japanese form! Is there any way to know if it is Illini Warrior? Or is a mis labelled peony forever unknown?

Welcome! Peony Lucy,

It is very difficult to ID peonies unless they have some unique properties. Some unscrupulous sellers just send seedlings!

If this is a first year bloom, it may be a little off, but it appears to be a single bloom, and not a Japanese bloom to me.

Have you complained to the seller? They may replace it.

Aren't your tree peonies taller?
