Hi, I moved from Quebec to Ontario in Nov. and had

to choose which plants to bring, choosing favorites

was so difficult!! I brought 20 peony varieties with me,

burying them in pots in the field..can't wait 'till spring to design my gardens!

These are a few of my favorites-

Bowl Of Beauty

Starlight

Moonrise

Paula Fay

Pink Hawaiian Coral

Sea Shell

Coral Charm

Cora Louise

Bartzella

Going Bananas

What are yours?

As yet I only have two varieties - Sarah Bernhardt and Mme Calot. My yard is tiny, and I wanted to keep it simple. I planted in fall of 2010 and only got one bloom the following spring. Can't wait for this spring to see what pops up!
