Paeonia corsica
16th March 2017
A complicated species that has been around the houses in taxonomic terms. It is now treated as a single taxon from Corsica and Sardina that can be variable.
I bought it as a seedling in 2014 and since then it has grown well in the Agave house. It produces large quantities of seed and I should have raised hundreds of seedlings,
but for some reason I haven't. The pink flowers are one of the delights of March and are redolent of summer. They mark the end of the dark days of winter.
