Treepeony? - I'm in doubt now

Do you know this peony?

It was bought 3 years ago as Paeonia suffruticosa subsp. rockii. So it was supposed to be a classic Rock's peony, it is now easy to see that so isnt the case.
Until now i thought that it was a shot from below the graft, and i looked forward to see what peony they had used for rootgrafting.
But now flowering, it seems to be a hybrid of some kind? Perhaps mislabled?
It was planted well below the surface, so i have waited 3 years to see it in bloom.
Below here on this picture you can see a real Rockii - it is the tiny peony with seedcapsules - the leaves are very different. The peony i hope you can identify is ofcource the big one above, it seems to be very healthy. 
Do you recognize it?

Thanks for the response, there are no 100% match - but these are my candidates:




  •     Callies memory
  •     Canary brilliants
  •     Court Jester
  •     Pastel Splendor
  •     Sonoma Floozy (waw!)
Perhaps i can tell next year?

    1. Yes - thats exactly my point - The big one is something else, but do you know what it is?
