~ Laurie I have a lot of older peonies that were my grandmothers and those tend to flop over plus the flowers are white HUGE. I can sometimes smell their fragrance from the vegetable garden in the spring. Also is that TB iris in the photograph "Beau Zam"? Beau Zam is one of my favorite Bearded irises.
