Your peony is probably one called Sarah Bernhardt (sp).
It’s one of the few that will do in our area and bloom with any consistency. It’s going to like being against the house because of the lime leaching out of the foundation. :) Our soils are generally too acid for peonies.
Thanks for the info. I have heard about our acidic soild but i don’t have enough experience to tell the difference. I know we have red mud/clay.
I have found since I moved into this house that the previous owners were quite the gardeners. I have things everywhere and stuff popping up all the time. The plants are not placed at random either. I am pretty sure the previous owners had a specific reason for putting everything where it is. I am glad they did!
Naj, you may be interested in the info of the post I am replying to....;)
