Thanks Rick, very impressive, and probably 99% it will survive. But not right now. I would need to have a place ready for it. Yesterday I cleaned part of my backyard, trimmed part of dead branches of a Viburnum, pulled poison ivy (not finished yet__too hot today), pulled maybe 1/10 of the creeping English Ivy---filled a large Fairfax County garden waste bin---I have 2 bins--I still have long stems climbing that Viburnum, I am not sure what they are. Then a young but already tall volunteer of Japanese honey suckle tree ('trunk about one inch, can cut with my loppers, but I have to crawl passed those branches of the Viburnum), some volunteers of hibiscus (I do not like the color), they are kind of bluish pink with darker center if I remember correctly--I definitely do not like them. What a messy backyard---I need to clean all that, plus carry out to the street the branches of the evergreen that John helped to cut. AFTER I got all those cleaned, then I would purchase the yellow peony----It would be nice to plant it next to the pink one in front, but there is simply no space for it, unless I take out the rambling rose that I purchased long long time ago before I knew that I should read the description of the rose bush how it grows before I ordered it. It is the kind that produces those long long branches-----and it only blooms once annually, but what kinds of flowers when it is blooming. Just spectacular. This is an old picture:
