The beautiful, highly scented peony was sold to me by a local, reputable nursery as Paeonia lactiflora ‘Sarah Bernhardt’.
But is it?
I thought ‘Sarah B’ was a little lighter in colour.
Let me know what you think.

Definitely not, Mike. Sarah is more apple blossom pink. Know the feeling…just found out that two roses I bought last year from very reputable rose breeders are not what they’re meant to be 😉

Anette, there appears to be more and more of this in nursery practice these days. Not a good situation!
Thanks for the response though.
