Yours is Paeonia ludlowii,
With two Synonyms: Paeonia lutea var. ludlowii, Paeonia delavayi ssp. ludlowii. So it actually can have all the words of lutea, ludowii and delavayi. But the significant and unique word is "Ludlowii".

Here is the Wikipedia link:

Sorry, the classification and names of paeonia species is actually very confusing.

Bonehead said:Sorry for confusion, but what should I link my peony to? I don't care about the specific cultivar, this was a seedling from my neighbor, but I would like to be semi-accurate for my inventory list. From reading the above, there was mention of lutea, ludlowii, and delavagi? I am not at all knowledgeable about peonies and mainly just want to include this in my list so I can track care and performance. Thanks, peony people!
