I was elated this spring to see a bud on a plant of Paeonia emodi that I'd grown from seed sown about a hundred years ago. It opened pink. Hasty checking confirmed it as P. veitchii. Nice but not nice enough. Might anyone be able to let me have seed of true P. emodi in autumn? John Grimshaw Dr John M.
