Peony Tree


Hi
Just took these of my Yellow Peony Tree that just opened. It has a fantastic fragrance that fills that air. It is 4 years old and about 4ft tall....so far.













Enjoy them as I do......for a brief period.

Anyone have any luck harvesting seed and growing one from seed?
When should the seed be harvested?
Thanks

I read that the seed pods swell during the summer and then will turn brown. Some will have seed some will be empty...like mine...LOL
