When I was a teen some older gardeners gave me divisions of their peonies, but I had to dig them myself (and was happy to do so!). These were old plants, and I broke a couple of shovels in the process,

Uh oh ... Mrs. J. planted the peony that needs moving from under the propane tank. It was here when I bought my house in '04.

I can tell you this much, it's a survivor. I didn't even water it regulary or feed it for years after I bought the house. It just keeps coming back. The base is really, seriously under the propane tank. I don't know how I am even going to get under it to carve out a bit of the root system.

The others look pretty good for someone who really doesn't know much about caring for them ...
