What a gorgeous peony to start the peony blooming season, Annette! Your Shima Nishiki's mix of red/pink/white colors looks so striking like an awesome watercolor painting. Thumbs up

Coral Sunset is beautiful LG!

I ran around the garden taking some quick pics this morning, including my yellow tree peony

Oh Wow! Love your yellow TP and white daffs combo, Annette! I too would like to know its name!

LG, it is amazing that your Coral Sunset already has an open bud! That is really early!

Thanks for your kind comments!
I have no idea of the name of the yellow tree peony, it didn't come with a name. Any suggestions as to what it could be would be wonderful!

littlebin, you maybe right! In looking at other pictures of High Noon, the color and form are similar. I'll have to take more picture of the blooms to compare the center.

I have High Noon TP. When it blooms, i will post flower for comparison to yours, Annette. It grows much faster than other tree peonies.

Yours is the first of our last year's rosea purchases to bloom, Jerry! Congrats, it's lovely. Looking forward to seeing how mine do this spring, we probably have 6" of snow out there right now and it's not supposed to end until Monday morning.

Liz, I am so sorry you are getting snow again.
Here is a bud on my 'Coral Sunset'

Thumb of 2016-04-16/Mieko2/a0ea90

I sure hope this is 'Coral Fay' it came from GW so one never knows. Confused

Evening pic of Early Scout. It has begun closing for the night but is a good example of a healthy peony.
