I would be most interested in all of those seeds. Please look over my list, I have many commercial as well as a number of named seeds harvested from my garden last year. Please choose as many as you like, the seeds you are offering are well worth it. Thank you, Les Here is a link that might be useful: Tradelist

Hi: I ordered it from Lindenberg Seeds in Manitoba. I can't find the instructions right now but I did amend the soil for proper drainage and followed the planting instructions. The root was a nice size when it arrived. I even put a metal cage over the plant to make sure the squirrels didn't dig it out. I was so looking forward to seeing it grow. I did find the tag and it says full sun or part shade and add organic matter to the planting hole. I'll keep looking to see if anything comes up but I have my doubts. Betty

One of the worse things you can do for P. tenuifolia is to plant it in a wet location. The plant needs to be on the dry side during winter. I have mine in a raised bed with sand added to improve drainage. Fern-leaf peonies multiply rapidly when they are happy. It is surprising how fast they multiply. I usually plant mine shallow also but they seem to re-adjust themselves much deeper. I notice that some buds will emerge from roots as deep as 8 inches below ground surface. It seems a lot of people have trouble growing the plant; I think it is mostly due to placing it in an incorrect site. This year we had good moisture all summer long and my fern-leaf peonies held the foliage well all summer. The foliage has just recently dried up. I have one location at the base of a retaining wall where there is still green fernleaf foliage at September 10th. There are several fern-leaf selections around. P. tenuifolia 'bieberstaniana' is one of the most coarse of the fern-leaf foliages; it is suppose to flower later also but I have not noticed that in my garden. I am uncertain what 'itoba' really is; if it is a selection of species fernleaf or if it is some type of hybrid. The foliage is considerably more coarse than P. ten 'bieberstaniana'. 'Itoba' does not seem to want to set seed for me and I wonder if it may be sterile which may mean it is not a species peony. The other single forms of species P. tenuifolia vary in coarseness. I consider P. ten. 'rosea' to be a medium coarse fernleaf. The flowers are pink however they do not show up well in the garden and appear to be bland when compared to the lipstick red of the other tenuifolias. P. ten. rubra plena flora (Double fern-leaf) has the most fine foliage of all the fern-leafs. The foliage is almost feather-like. I love the foliage of this one and the flowers seem to just turn inside out and create the most dazelling display in early spring. It is still my favorite of all of the fern-leafs. Fern-leaf peonies go dormant early and should be divided or transplanted rather early in fall. They begin to sprout new feeder roots early on so you want to get them into place early. I am still looking for a plant of the white fern-leaf peony (Paeonia tenuifolia 'alba'). Is there anyone out there that is growing this plant? The link below is an article that has a photo of P. tenuifolia rosea and P. tenuifolia 'alba'. Leon. Here is a link that might be useful: Paeonia tenuifolia

Oh the front of your house looks so pretty with them blooming(and so different from later in the year! Though later looks good too! lol.) You definitely need to save me some Dancing Butterflies and Barrington Belle. I don't have any peonies to dig this year, Well I could do Sarah, but you have her too. Did you get some of my Bowl of Beauty when I separated it a couple years ago? I know Mary got one at the swap. Anyway, you know I'll have some goodies for you : ) Remy
