ST, I always love to go to garden shows!! Of course, that one is too far away for me.

I hope you will go even if you have to go by yourself.

Maybe you'll find some interesting peonies!

I know our Wisconsin Peony Society will not be selling roots this year, mainly due to complying with natural cycle of peonies and proper planting time really being in the Fall, for best success. I understand though that there will be a peony grower there, not sure if they are selling actual peonies or not? WPS will be selling little seedlings, while they last.

ST52 are you in the Wisconsin Peony Society? If you aren't, you should consider it. There are nice events we do as well as educational opportunities. Always something new to learn.

Hi Tracey: Yes, I joined WPS in 2018. I believed I met you @ the grafting class last August. After attending this great educational class, I thought I can take the same class in 2019. Unfortunately, WPS does not offer the grafting class this year. Confused Do you know why? Will it possible to have one in 2020? Crossing Fingers!

Will WPS offer some "tree peony" seedlings for sale? and I know peonyenvy is one of the vendors in the garden show.

WPS will having seedlings of both germinated herbaceous and tree. I would bet we sell out, so earlier day is better if you hoping for them .

WPS has the grafting class every other year. There are a few different ideas about why we don't have it every year. It's quite a bit of work to get it together, teachers, materials etc. This also gives time for those who have learned the skill, to do it on their own a year.
