So, my mystery plant that no one seems to have ever seen before has beautiful pink flowers. They kind of reminded me of peony buds before they opened, but now they remind me more of a ranunculus or buttercup flower. Anyone know what it is now?
Gardening Adventures from the North started in March 2008 as an attempt to track and share my gardening experiences in Northern BC. My garden is a zone 3b, although more and more I am seeing plants hardy to zones 4 or 5 overwinter here. I am interested in sustainable gardening practices, shade gardening, seed starting and plant propagation (of which I have had little success). Hopefully as this blog evolves it will include our interior and exterior home renovations, and my experiences canning and preserving my garden delicacies.

Arlene,
Tacoma flowers
Not much of a help with names but wouldn't I love to have a plant like that? The blooms are beautiful!
You have a beauty there. That is a fernleaf peony. Keep it and photograph it frequently!
I was going to suggest a poppy also! What a cool looking flower:)
Gardenista is right I think. This must be an Paeonia tenuifolia (single fernleaf peony)
