@Neal, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who tends to plant things closer than recommended. Karen, I like to get a lush effect quickly😁
I did have to dig up Coral Charm, it was easy, and struggling in the back if a bed where the canopy from the trees had over grown, and prevented it from getting watered, the rootball was puny. Sorbet was a little harder, having grown better that Coral Charm.
Pastel Splendor and Hillary were harder to dig out. I did water the areas well before attempting to dig up the peonies. I know tuber pieces of all of them were left behind, maybe those will mature and send up new plants.
We're supposed to get a lot of rain tomorrow, which I'm looking forward to. Cora Louise and Do Tell that have to be moved have good sized rootballs, I'm not looking forward to digging them out.
I also need to remove some of my bearded irises in front of Shimanishiki and Bartzella. The irises have multiplied, and are starting to crowd the base of these peonies.
