Does anyone have an old peony bush? The peonies in my yard I got because I dug my Mom's up and split it. She got hers the same way, from her Mom, and Gram got hers from her Dad. Mom's had hers from the early 60's, and Gram got hers heaven only knows when from her parents but it was before the 40's. So these plants are from possibly originals dating back to probably the 20's or 30's or before. Is there anyway we can find out what kind they are? Gram was one of 14 kids, and I think that most of them, along with their kids and grandkids, and now great grandkids, all have these same pink peonies! So there are alot of us that would like to know about them. Thanks in advance!
