Adding to the Collection

New additions for the season are Gratis, Lavender and P. veitchii purchased from La Pivoinerie D'Aoust in QC . She is one of the best suppliers in Canada. (In this bloggers opinion) I also managed to acquire a couple of peony roots from this year's
Root Sale Browns Red Jap, Going Bananas and The Fleece.

All have been appropriately placed and a couple may even give me blooms next year. Large divisions. (more than 5 eyes) I have had very good luck with the root sale divisions and hope to continue adding to my collection this way.
