We love.....

....Peonies! Okay, so they're not out yet, but they are are growing well and we are still planting out the divisions that we potted up back in Autumn so deserve a mention... We have several plants in our cutting garden and then about 100 or so in the field that we will be constantly adding to until we run out of space as surely one can never have enough?!? They are still relatively young and will not produce many flowers to start with but will become more and more productive as the years go by... We have a range of colours, from white to ivories to pale pinks, deep pinks and reds. My all time favourite has to be Sarah Bernhardt as it is just so pretty and unashamedly blowsy.... Once we start making some bouquets with them will post some more pics...
