What variety of Peony is this?

12 years ago

I sent my mother a photo of my Peony bush and she said that she had never seen one with the yellow center in the flower like mine. It got me wondering what kind it really is. It was growing in the yard when we moved into the home so I know little about it other than the fact that I had divided and moved this bush from where it originally was. I am hoping someone has an ID for me.

Don't know the name but it sure is lovely. It looks to be a herbaceous peony as opposed to an ITOH based on the shape of the flower bud.
You could try the name that plant forum as well.
Some questions that might help would be:
Does it have any fragrance? For your area is the peony blooming earlier than others, about the same time or later than? How tall is it?
