| Here are some of the peonies I have ordered for this fall: Coral Sunset
May Lilac
Picotee
Rozella
Burma Midnight
Lavender
Old Faithful
Lovely Rose From your list I would like to get Lorelei and Lemon Chiffon, but Lemon Chiffon is very expensive. Let us know if you find a cheaper source than Reath's. |

| For the most part I look out for peony seeds. On a fixed income there is no way I could afford divisions or plants. I was lucky to get the brecks peony collection. That was a very nice deal. I'm looking forward to planting them this fall. I love the ones you have chosen. Especially the Coral Sunset |

| I have the Breck's collection as well. I got it in 2005. The flowers are blooming well now. Yes, I have been wanting Coral Sunset for a couple of years, and I am really looking forward to seeing it bloom. I just planted my first seeds last year, and I will be waiting patiently to see their first blooms. Have you been able to collect lots of species peonies from seed? |

| Not yet. I just started gardening in 2005 and then just moved this year. So I'm back to the starting point. I have to turn clay, rocks and weeds into good garden soil. Then I can start on the plants. So I brought my two peonies with me and a friend sent me a live plant as a housewarming and that plus what I ordered from Brecks is the beginning of my collection. I'm looking at that austrailian website and making plans for next years ordering season. They have some very pretty specimens displayed on their website. |
