So this is what my gardens look like right now. Most still have dead growth from last year, I cleaned out a few beds today.

But I did move mulch away from a lot of peonies today and found swollen eyes on most, here's a few!

Those were the first 4 I uncovered and the rest were about the same. Really excited about some of the new ones and looking forward to seeing which ones bloom this year! It'll be interesting to see if those huge roots from Fina translate into a larger shrub and more blooms 1st year or if the 3-5 eye divisions are truly better.
