Summary

Description
English: A single flower of Paeonia ludlowii showing ripening anthers and (contorted?) corolla aestivation, after unfurling of globular flower bud. Visible in the centre, a small claw-like green carpel, later to develop into follicular fruit, surrounded by yellow stamens - the anthers of which are ripening from the centre outwards. Stamens attached to ring-like, green, floral disc (not visible here - hidden completely by stamens). Flower borne by a cultivated specimen of this beautiful Tibetan tree peony, growing in a private front garden in the suburb of West Ealing, London, U.K.
