It really would be terrible to forget peonies. I added five more to my front yard last fall for a total of ten and this is a small space.

pgt and Terese have such romantic gardens that you have to admire them, but then again I've never seen a cottage garden I didn't love. I've saved a couple of both your pictures for my inspiration file.

Good eye, pgt, that's donkey spurge and it blooms about a month but the texture is good all summer. I cut the old parts of the plant back after blooming so it doesn't have a chance to reseed.

This picture is to show that some of my garden is calm and restful.
