Thanks, Celia.

This is the last of my tree peonies to bloom - Kinkaku.

In this first photo, you wouldn't even know that the plant was blooming. It has weak stems and the flower heads just kind of hangs down. What I do is find some forked branches, and prop the blooms up. There was about 7-8 blooms. Quite a difference in the before and after.

I don't know if all of the Kinkakus is like this. The blooms are quite striking and makes a great cut flower.
