Pwinget, yes I did get La Perle! Got it as part of my Hollingsworth order last week and has been planted. Looking forward to seeing it bloom (hopefully!!) next spring. Ended up with over 100 ordered, mostly herbaceous with a few tree and Itoh's.


Cem9165, I agree with Pwinget, your garden looks lovely and peaceful. I ordered Imaculee for this fall! Have Gardenia and Sorbet, love them! I'm not in the south, we're in a zone that peonies like, but I don't see very many varieties here, either. Even our botanical garden only has around 50 varieties. Peonies, for the most part, can take our crazy springs, do well with the low amounts of water over winter and are deer resistant. If they just re-bloomed in the summer I'd probably never plant anything else! Probably just as well, it'd be beautiful but kinda' boring with just the one type of plant, huh?

I have Pink Vanguard on my list for next year, think I have enough to plant this fall! I'm going to look up the others you guys mentioned, haven't seen Wladislawa or Yachiyotsubaki. Crazy good find at that price, Pwinget!! Ok, just looked them up, Yachiyotsubaki is really, really pretty! Does the Wladislawa smell good? I have a lot of single pinks but not very many with a nice scent. That one will make my list too if it smells nice!

Can't wait until the next box arrives in the mail! We're finally having something similar to fall here but it's been so wet I haven't started digging/dividing/moving anything yet but am getting really inspired!!!
