You are really selling me on a tree peony. Do they like full sun? Hmmm. Need to do my homework,!

Oh Deb -- that tree peony blossom is just stunning!!!

And I love Sparks Fly -- the ones you sent me have survived the winter, but look so tiny. I don't see how they can bloom this year..........................

A gardening friend recently gifted me with a tree peony. I do not know its name and it is only about six inches high. I do like its leaves and I am looking forward to getting to know it a lot better in the years to come. smiles

Debra, love your tree peony. Back in Illinois we had the old fashioned peonies that would fill the house with fragrance. My brother sent me some hybrids that were not fragrant, but gorgeous colors. I really wish I had brought some of them with me when we moved to AR.
