What a beautiful name for a peony! I took a look at the pic of of in the database and it has such a pretty deep pink color.
I do love to smell pleasant scented peonies esp. the ones that smell like roses. Though what i have found over the years that the fragrant peonies never smell the same from year to year. In 2013, I thought Henry Bockstoce had the strongest, nicest, sweetest fragrance. Then I tried to smell this fragrance from him again last spring and it was not there. THere was just a very faint scent, nothing memorable. But I found this sweet scent on a different peony, a mislabeled that looks very similar to Laura Dessert. I hope that she will have the same fragrance this year.
