It is early but I wanted to present a running account of the life of fern leaf peonies for those who have never grown them. Pictures spaced about 2 weeks apart should show the progression from eyes to bloom.
Pics 1, 3 and 4 are known double reds. 2 and 6 are unknown from tiny starts not bloomed yet. 5 is an unknown which had good foliage last year but did not bloom. 7 and 8 are known single reds which have bloomed profusely in the past. The last is a new known species single red from Hidden Springs which should bloom this year.
