I finally added the new purchases to arrive this fall into my database. I am in BIG trouble. 22 coming and have no idea where to put them. May have to resort to digging up more lawn. I dug up a rhubarb bed and moved three peonies there that were not happy where they were. Two were partially rotted so hoping this will save them. The other had barely changed since planting over 5 years ago. Very few feeder roots but a firm tuber. Strange. Not enough sun I think.

This fall I will dig up a lot of stuff that is iffy and are sort of 'one off's' in the beds to allow for a more 'specimen' look with heavy mulch between. I despise the chickweed that invades every year. I even preened this year again. Can't imagine what it would look like if I hadn't done it.
From -60 Alaska to +100 Virginia. Wahoo
