Western peony is a supremely interesting and attractive oddity of a wildflower. Consisting of slightly fleshy foliage (i.e. glaucous), big lobed leaves, large fleshy roots, giant seeds, and long pendulous pink flower stems rising then descending – bearing the singularly strange flowers.

Those flowers…not numerous…but unordinary. Peculiar. Arresting. Alien. Beautiful. They consist of a half dozen large green/chocolate/purple sepals surrounding shorter maroon and gold petals, which in turn surround the reproductive organs – the packed dozens of golden filaments, ringing several large fleshy carpels. The effect is overtly sexual, a combination of colors and sensations a bit like a sliced ripe fig. It’s fantastical. A story of erotic evolution on full display from a different earth – where other climates reigned and volcanos and serpentine soils and now extinct wildlife defined the land.

For all of that, this most striking plant naturally occurs inland at mid-mountain elevations, among sand and rock, within the sun-dappled understory of pine forests. It’s distributed throughout the intermountain West between the Rockies and the Pacific. From California to Idaho. In mesic soils (neither high desert dry, nor wetland) where other wildflowers tend to be numerous and abundant, and the winters are cold but not deeply blanketed in snow.

While we know these basics, the deeper lifeways of this plant are enigmatic. The flowers smell funky, likely to attract flies as pollinators (although other creatures also visit them, including small sweat bees and wasps). Deer tend to ignore the plant. Its actual annual growing season is short, compressed into the spring, then going dormant in the summer. The whole affair never gets much more than a about a foot in height, making it seem short if you’re familiar with other (non-native) peony species. And the massive-sized seeds likely benefit from a mysterious set of cold stratification and other dormancy-breaking mechanisms to prompt germination. 

A true specimen plant for the native garden. 

5 large seeds (3.5 grams).

Very nice cart.
The cart is very functional and relatively easy to put together. I was also provided a great tip on the assembly that made it much easier.

Very nice product. Not that difficult to put together. I did it by myself just following the instructions exactly. Have gotten compliments from my friends. Fits a lot. Would definitely recommend. Nicely designed.

Pleasantly surprised!
The cart is super-sturdy, easy to assemble, and looks surprisingly nice. You would think that the “wood” (the rustic oak) on this cart would look hideous, but it’s not - and it looks good with the black metal. Just make sure you have your own tools, like a screw driver with a 4 mm hex bit or an impact driver or screw driver with a 4 mm hex bit; it would take way too long with the supplied hex wrench, which although a good quality, is just too slow to use.)

The directions to build it were clear, and it was simple to put together alone. The wood and metal are good quality and the 3 shelves provide a lot of storage. I have no complaints.
