Nick. It took you just 2 years to collect 50 plants. I got my first peony in 1997 and only just last year surpassed the 55 varieties mark. I must say you move much faster than I.
I am curious to see the blooms on your First Arrival and Singing in the Rain. I purchased those from Wayside/Park since they were cheap. I know, you get what you paid for......BUT this is what ensued....
This was labelled "Singng in the Rain". When it bloomed 3 years later, this was what it looked like
Turned out to be Morning Lilac.
This was labelled " First Arrival. " And this is what its blooms look like:
Any guesses as to what it could be?
I am happy with the mistakes since in the long run, I did get a yellow and a lavender ITOH for about $22 each.
