California Peonies

George,

Yes, I used to grow Peony californica from seeds in Southern California.
It was quite easy to germinate, but I lost them when I moved to Northern
California. They are happy to grow in decomposed granite (dg). No water is
required during hot and dry summer time. They started blooming around
Christmas to January in our area.

I'm writing to see if anyone on the list has had experience growing either
of the two California native peonies, Paeonia brownii or Paeonia
californica. If so, can you provide any guidance on growing these from
seed? Also, if anyone is aware of sources for seeds for these two plants,
that would be helpful also. Thank you.
