Southern Peony Intersectional Peony Garden
This was the sight I saw when I arrived home today. It was such a sight to behold, especially since when I left the only peonies that were really blooming were some early blooming Saunders hybrids. The tree peonies had already pretty much finished, and the intersectional peony bed was just full of buds. So to experience an almost instant transformation from full bud to full bloom was just amazing! The garden is just lovely and my whole family is very proud and happy to see it as well. I must say that when I first planted my intersectional peony bed I had hoped it would be beautiful, but these flowers have far exceeded my expectations - so full of life and easy to grow here in the South. If you don't yet grow any intersectional peonies, I highly recommend trying one, you'll definitely want more!

Hello Adriana,
ReplyDeleteHow is your Sonoma YeDo doing this year? How many stems it sent out this year? It is a highly desirable variety yet expensive and few people have it. It is on my wish list. Could you please share some pictures of the foliage and bloom later?
N Tang,
DeleteIt actually had 3 blooms on it this year (with many more stems). The blooms are not huge, so I'm guessing it is still settling in. The bush is very large and healthy this year, and looks like it could definitely support more than 3 blooms. I'm guessing there will be several more next year. Let's see. I will try to create a post about it since you asked. :-)
