My Coral Charm peony buds are much more obvious, being on the top of the bush rather than down underneath the leaves. And here's the first one just starting to open:

Popping Peonies
Early this morning as I was going to let the chooks and ducks out, a dark red something in the corner of my eye caught my attention. When I lifted the peony leaves out of the way, this is what I found:
The unknown peony bud I posted last Sunday has opened! This plant grew from a piece of root dug up from the garden of a house in Coburg which was demolished three years ago. I couldn't remember what colour flowers the peony had, as it is probably nearly 10 years since I saw it in flower. But as soon as I saw it this morning, I remembered. Or maybe my brain is playing tricks on me, and I only think I remember it. Either way, it is a gorgeous flower!

Gorgeous poppy color--one of my favorite for fabrics...hugs, Julierose
Beautiful! Just wish our climate was well suited to these beauties, because I would have a garden full of them!
What a beautiful deep colour and a lovely surprise.
I don't know which I like more, the wine deep colour or the beautiful ruffles. Great save.
The dark red peony is stunning!
Wonderful dark red peony. You have a real treasure there!
I love peonies! The dark red is so pretty.
