My personal favourite is Paeonia lutea var. ludlowii ; its a tree
peony with single yellow flowers; but the foliage is also beautiful ; so
out of flower it doubles as a large architectural shrub. Pretty
indestructible, grows several feet high and wide but can be hacked
back.

Sounds good Janet. I'll tell the person who wants one. She isn't much of
a gardener and is going for "pretty" and what she sees on display so she
wants me to plant a peony to fill a gap in her shrubs. I recommended a
Choisya or an Exorchorda or even Photinia if i kept it small but she
says she would like a peony.
