Thanks Bea! I have come to really appreciate the short peonies recently. They are fantastic for the front of border and under or around other structures or taller plants. They are also less likely to require support with their low center of gravity. The plants in the video you shared looked awesome. I just wish they knew the cultivar names so I could look them up and know exactly what they were.
Val, thanks for a glimpse into your wonderful collection! They all look excellent and Eliza Lundy, Sweetie, and your Crazy Aboutcha are especially impressive for their fullness at that height. Sunlight looks spectacular; I will have to track that one down. On Thumbelina, is that a single plant?
On another note, the registry refers to a rock garden series selection by Krekler and Klehm. I have a few of these - Thumbelina, Royal Tot, Tinkerbelle, and Toy Delight. I've been meaning to write to Hollingsworth Peonies to see if they have some of the remaining ones and which might be distinct and superior. A project for winter!
