These aren’t Romneya Coulteri (often called Fried Egg Plant). They definitely look like peonies.
Oops, just noticed you said peonies!
Pretty!
Absolutely beautiful!
I want some with a side of spinach now!
Delicious! (for the bees 
)
These look beautiful!
They look so charming, like they belong in a classic novel.
Oooh, and they even look like they have a splash of hot sauce in the ‘yolk!’ Now I’m hungry!

Almost looks like a type of Camellia to me.
Sasanqua camellia? Those are blooming now in Zone 8b. Just cut back all our peonies for the winter, though.
