    I've been transplanting these peonies from house to house since I was a kid (30 years ago) after I got them from my grandmother. They are pink and smell better than any peony I've ever smelled. Can anyone help me identify them?

    Thanks,

    David, I know nothing about peonies...I was going to suggest the peony forum here on DG, but see that you have already discovered it. I do wish i could be of more help...sorry.
