WE don't know how or where these THIRTY ONE Dear Readers in Lithuania suddenly found out about MY Blog but SHE is mighty glad they did and 'came on board' as it were.. because it reminded HER that SHE has to order more Peonies, ooohh, how SHE lurves them!
And the best place SHE has ever found to buy these elegant ladies is from a website based in Lithuania!
It is called Peony Nursery.. very simply that and the website site is equally easy to remember for it is www.peonynursery.com.
Rosamund in Germany, are YOU there?
They are very LOW maintenance plants, only need proper staking when the plant is first put in and removal of dead foliage in Spring, and a bit of straw over the new shoots to protect them from frost.. but they would be simply beautiful for YOUR new garden.. HINT!
They sell both types of Peony, bush and tree, their prices are jurst amaazing and so is their service. There is a minimum charge, WE seem to remember, of $100.00, this includes packing and postage to anywhere in the world and they all carry a Certificate for Importation.
Their plants are wonderful.. go and have a look.. YOU will be astounded at the range of these exquisite plants.
The wonderful thing is they lurve very cold, frosty winters.. yes and they like snow as well.. most strange! But they grow wild in countries where the winters are severely cold and long.. do not plant them to deep, maximum two centimetres.. less than an inch.. otherwise they will not flower.. jurst like Raspberries, in fact!
Some are singles, some are doubles, there are earlies, middles and late flowering, some smell heavenly, some have a little fragrance but ALL of the colours are beyond 'pretty', that is for sure..
Go immediately, if not sooner, and have a look, they surely are a FEAST for the eye!
Talking of 'FEASTS'.. SHe sent some bulbs to Caroline and received a "thank you" which spoke of a 'feast of bulbs'.. what a simply lurvely expresssion..
Now, where is HER wallet .. don't jurst talk / write about ordering some.. do it, get a wiggle on!
WE will be back again later today, SHE has to plant bulbs and those 300.. yes, three hundred Onion sets today. rather HER than ME, but SHE does have knee pads.
Happy Saturday to YOU all..

Mieux tard que jamais! I love peonies that have graced Chinese art for centuries. But you're correct, they wouldn't like Texas or the Deep South. We'll have to enjoy them in photos (as in the catalog you sent me), or still life paintings.
