Cris, thank you asking and also for clarifying the name of the Peony you shared with us. Mine is growing well too and I'll take a pic tomorrow or as soon as I can when it's not raining. "Princess Margaret" is planted next to this White one a neighbor gave me last year. It really surprised me to see a bud so soon and she bloomed on May 5th. The scent was absolutely heavenly and so much sweeter than a rose.
Thanks for sharing those blooms with us, kobwebz. Your Bleeding Hearts especially look right at home.

Here is a picture of my newest found love in my garden ... its a suprise lily ... a friend had sent me several of these last year and she d-mailed me out of no where and showed me her dayliles and this was one of them... its called "caribbean Frank League" has a very faint fragrance.
Brandy
very very pretty OK BABS Have you found lots of goodies ???? very warm here waiting for the sun to go down so I Can water my plants think I will feed tonight .
so stay cool & chat soon
Beautiful day lily Brandy, dug and divided all my peonies last year, have very few blooms this year so I'm envious looking at the pictures posted here, beautiful.Thanks so much for sharing. My Rhododenndrums are on the north side and at least 20 years old, each year I faithfully take 1/3 of the branches off., Crazy winter/spring, lost all of my rose campion, adjuga, liatris and who knows what else, thank goodness for seed starting as I have babies of all of these. Can'twait for the robin to fly the coup again. Annette.
BRANDY : Forgot To TELL You I Have 2-3 Buds On the Daylily you sent me :) It is doing Just fine :) If I Can get it to open I will take a pic.
Annette: Your Not alone on loosing plants , About 50% of my irises got frosted out , also some of my Hosta got frosted. So I was out cutting them all back .
I need more Dianthus seeds of all types Pot of gold allysum , or walk on me ,
well i have to lay back been a very long day .
Susie... got plenty of the Alyssum from last year's harvest if you want some. Can send them right out or I can put them in the robin next time around. I got a big batch going and hope to plant them this fall as my existing patch is about 8 years old and looking raggedy. Does anyone know if they can be cut back?
I've had the perennial alyssum for 7 or 8 years and just pulled out a huge patch, it was really taking over the area it was in, I've never tried to cut it back, but it would be worth a try.
Rock Love to have some is it easy to grow from seed ??? well Babs Should be getting the Robin back in the air today So maybe Next week I can have a new flight plan for it .
well got to go out & water before the sun comes up you all have a great day .
susie
Susie... my experience with growing alyssum from seed has been a combination of both easy and hard. No problem with them germinating, but once they've started, the seedlings do not like to dry out. As long as they're kept moist until they're relatively mature (2-3 months), they're carefree after that.
I have two patches... this is my small patch. Planning to expand it by adding some fresh starts for next year's blooms, and also trimming the older plants, as they've gotten leggy after all these years.
Sorry for the error in the link. I went in & took a look again & have
it listed as "Public" for viewing so not sure what is wrong :(
I'll D-mail the list to any interested in seeing it.
Susie,
I can send you some Iris bulbs in the fall & I do have
some different types of dianthus you may be interested in.
