Sister Cate and Brother Tim purchased this tree peony for me, I think from Cricket Hill, about 25 years ago. I haven’t done a great job of cultivating this shrub, but it has bloomed a few times and this year has two flower buds. Here is what the plant looks like today.
My 2020 goals for this plant will be to get some photos of the flowers as they open and then to clear out the Camellia and other plants around it so that it has room to breathe and grow. I’ll fertilize it with organic, acid-lover fertilizer.
