Donna, you beat me in starting this thread! And I'm glad you did. I'm happy to hear, and a little proud, that your Canadian peonies are rising (first?). :)

Hello all! Happy belated new year and I hope everyone has been well. We've had a mild winter here. Frosts came early... and then left early. Plants are breaking earth a month earlier than last year.

Here is my most enthusiastic herbaceous (1) It is Morning Kiss. It's odd I can't find it listed on the peony database. It was a nice size in the pot when I had bought it. I'm happy to see it likes its new home.

(2) is Kao, I think. By process of elimination, because its tag disappeared, and assuming its name is true, it must be that tree. I can't wait to see it flower.
