Please share your favorite peony blooms with pics! What made them stand out to you? If they are not first year blooming plants, why do you like them more this year compared to other years?
For me this year, Philippe Rivoire was a delightful surprise. Its intense color (dark purplish red with a black sheen), its symmetrical form, and pleasant rose scent had been very memorable. I can't wait to see its bloom again next year. Unfortunately, my camera can't capture its beautiful color as seen by the eye.
