Liz, if I remember right, the other peonies all bloomed the following spring except Singing in the Rain. It didn't bloom til last spring, & so very lovely! They have all made nice sized peonies, I have gotten so many complements on them. Around here all you ever see are Festiva Maxima, Felix Crousse, Sarah Bernhart & Shirley Temple, so anything else gets lots of oohs & ahs! Blonde vision is now right by my back door so I can be more watchful of it. I'm just not uses to peonies being sensitive, I've always thought of them as almost indestructible.
