Was it you Ceratonia that sent me the tree peony babes...?  Just to say, growing very well and strong.  I am a very happy gardener!  ;D

Glad to hear it.

Plenty of buds on mine, but no leaves yet. Guess you'll have to wait a couple more years for flowers.

My tree peony younsters (5 years old) will flower for the first time this year. Can't wait for the buds to open  ;D. 4 P. rockii with one flower bud on each plant. I'll post a picture in the gallery when they open!

My P rockii are still in the seed. Lutea is seedling size, so it's going to be a few years yet.

Today... a chap on our plot told me that the ancient Chinese had special priests to pray  for and to care for the the tree peaony plants.  If you would like to "employ me" EJ,  I am willing to train up on the subject...

I have to wait 5 years for flowers :o :o :o

I thought it wouldnt be long now. They finally germinated a few weeks ago, and I thought that was the end of the long waits :(

Ah well, at least I may learn to have a bit of patience ::)
