| I hope I'm the first to say "beautiful, beautiful!" Very luscious blooms and the peonies are outstanding! I can grow neither clematis nor peonies here so I'll just enjoy the shots people post on the forum! Lynn |

| It's nice that you showed both livin' easy and easygoing. And peonies, wow, that is something I don't see every day. |

| Thanks guys, I'm getting to be a huge peony fan. Those have been holding like that for a couple of weeks now. The two toned one is new and those are the secondary blooms. Here's a pic as it bloomed for the first time for me.....

| I'm stunned by the 1st bloom on the 2-toned peony. They were amongst my favorite spring bloomers in Oregon. White Eden is plain gorgeous! |

| The two tone is Chinese, can't remember the Chinese name but the common name is Frosty Dew. I chose it to play off the two colors of the others and it did not disappoint. The peonies share the same bed as the LE and EG. When I went to the rose farm with my list last spring, they didn't have the ones I had called out. I subbed White Eden and last year I was questioning my sanity. But this year it is going gang busters and there are probably 40-50 buds just waiting to open. I don't have a lot of white in my garden and I am tickled with what it is adding. |

| I've never seen White Eden... It's beautiful! |

| I purchased Red and White Eden to go up a small arbor. How old is your White Eden? It sounds like your first year with it was rough as far as blooming. Mine seems similar. It has put out some growth, but so far only 1 bud, although I anticipate more since it is only it's first year. It's nice to see more people getting Red and White Eden as they are fairly new roses and I don't see much of them. |

| Mine was new last year and was quite slow to go anywhere. We had a hideous winter and early spring here this year and it was doing nothing. But boy when the weather turned so did it. It was once a sub for something else but is fast becoming my allstar. When all is said and done, I'm going to be real tickled with it. |

| White Eden is just beautiful!! I would love to add her to my garden but I doubt it would open here. Thank you for these lovely pictures. Lesley |

| Thanks Carol (On the fantastic part) I just have a little ProShot that I click and shoot, the garden does all the work :-) We just ended a record of days w/o rain here last night and got dumped on. I went out to a huge case of rose hangovers this AM. Did manage a couple though..... Outrageous
