    So beautiful! That Physocarpus is incredible. What a bummer that you were so dissappointed and upset about the peonies, but you have loads more beauty in your garden!

    It would be very hard indeed to pick a favorite……
    Oh, ok–I pick the peony bud. Love the anticipation. And hopefully the deer will leave it ALONE!

    Lovely. Our peonies are ahead of yours. Ours have already bloomed and are gone. I miss them.

    I wonder if that Ninebark would grow in the Poconos. I’d love it.

    John, that is a wonderful specimen of the Ninebark, so full and lush. Love it.
