Clare Oliva said… Anne, now that you've found the perfect spot for your peonies, they will definitely getting bigger and have more blooms each year. It is very typical for peonies to only have a few or NO blooms the first year. After that, they take off! (Gardening teaches us patience!)
Joseph Wright said… Anne, still white my door. The tulips draw me away from painting ! Lol
Clare Oliva said… Yes, you absolutely must get the white peonies. My favorite (and the most fragrant) is one called Festiva Maxima.
Clare Oliva said… Anne, I find the white peonies have the most fabulous fragrance. If you don't have a white one, you must plant one this fall!
Clare Oliva said… WOW! WOW! WOW! Anne, what a smile your picture gave me! I know how long you have been waiting to get some peony blooms and this one certainly was worth the wait! Does it have a nice fragrance??? YAHOO!
Clare Oliva said… Wow, Anne, that triple cup daylily is really stunning! I don't think I've ever seen one that looks like that!!!
Clare Oliva said… Anne, how exciting that you can see the color in that peony bud! I can't wait to see the bloom -- it won't be long!
Clare Oliva said… Anne, how awesome that you are seeing buds on your peonies!!! I can't wait to see pictures of them in bloom!
Clare Oliva said… Perfect, Anne! From my experience, peonies don't like mulch close to the stems. We dig back the mulch in early spring when we first see the red stems emerging.
Clare Oliva said… Wow, that peony is really getting big, Anne! What is the stuff on the ground around it? If it's mulch, pull it back a bit away from the peony stems. I'm so psyched for you -- I hope you get some blooms this year!
