Is this Bowl of Beauty?

I have an unidentified peony that was dug from a consenting farmer's ditch. I think it is Bowl of Beauty, but I'm not sure. It has the outer row of pink petals and the center is creamy/light yellow. This is the 1st time I have seen it in bloom, so it's possible it isn't going to be the same as when it matures. It bloomed a little later than Red Charm. As far as height goes, I don't think I can factor that in as I'm guessing it's not a full height peony, yet. There are 2 pictures of it, one is in a little bit of shade, and the other is in full sunlight.

I've seen some pictures of Bowl of Beauty online and in catalogs, but it didn't really catch my eye...however, I really like the contrast in the peony that I have. If it is indeed Bowl of Beauty, then I will be changing my tune and saying that it is a very striking peony.

Looks like my Bowl of Beauty, so I'd say yes.

Couldn't it also be Cora Stubbs? Unless my memory is playing tricks on me (might be!), I think Cora is somewhat like that also. It's been some time since I've seen one.
