I ordered 5 herbaceous peonies from a co-op purchasing from Hollingsworth in 2010. All survived and bloomed this year with a couple blooming last year. There was a good selection of the routine cultivars, most at slightly more than 1/2 price. A friend of our family, through marriage, is a custom cake baker. She had a sign "Good cakes aren't cheap and cheap cakes aren't good." Words to consider when buying plants. The big names will always be a bargain in the end.
