Yesterday morning I cut the first peony flowers of the season. It is a beautiful bright pink color.   I think will be the earliest peony season we have ever had.  The warm weather we have enjoyed all spring is definitely helping our peonies to bloom.  I don't know the name of this flower but we suspect it might be Big Ben or Detroit.   My husband bought the roots from an older friend of his who brought the roots with him from Kentucky when he moved to Michigan in the 1960s.



I'll post more photos fo the flower when it opens.  And if anyone has an idea of what the name of this peony variety is I would love to know.
