My Paeonies are in full bloom, which is why we are getting such heavy rain... never fails. If you wanted a photo I would have to lie on my back in the border... ;D

Mine are just coming out, but most of them are sulking and refusing to flower. In some cases it's been going on for a while and I need to lift them and see what the problem is - I could have planted some too deep. I think most have suffered from the waterlogging the last couple of years.

I love the primula Tee Gee. I have a cerise one and an orange one that I grew from some saved seed. Did you grow them from seed?

I love the clematis, it is a shame that is always rains or gets very windy when the paeony starts to bloom. Mine is in bud on the allotment but will have to tie it up if the wind keeps up.
