A lot of my peonies are getting ready to pop. The freezing night played havoc with my fernies in bud and burnt the blooms. I have several tree peonies blooming at present time but below is the only one I'm really happy with.
Yagumo
Then I have Shimanishiki. She is notorious for not being stable and she certainly wasn't this year. Here is what she is supposed to kind of look like, altho, I think this bloom is quite faded. I'm not sure if it is because of the freezes we had when they were getting ready to pop or if it just needs some fertilizer.
Here is what her other bloom looked like.
And last we have Hoki. It's bloom seems quite a bit lighter than what it's supposed to be.
Oh well, hopefully the rest of my peonies will be just grand.
