Mary

I ordered 7 ....Now how am I going to hid these from Paul

Thanks Shannon! I found 2 that I really hope are still available and several others that I'd get if there were stragglers in the order!!!

Which ones did you get, Shannon? I'm trying to order Cactus Jack and Rubyette. Mary Stella, I have Abalone Pearl from Fina from last year, full price, unfortunately! It's stunning.

It looks like Cactus Jack is still available .. I ordered Abalone Pearl , Cactus Jack, Daisy Cornet , Early Scout,
Over Easy , Rubyette & Vanilla Raspberry Swirl ( Beautiful )

I got Early Scout 2 falls ago, it bloomed last spring! Good choice, it's really pretty. Got Vanilla Raspberry Swirl last fall, hope it blooms this spring. I really like the cactus dahlia bloom type, so unique. I have Circus Circus and Raspberry Rumba, those bloom well, too. The flowers are smaller than most of the ones I really love but they're so unusual for peonies. They look really pretty in a mixed peony bouquet with doubles since the flower form is so different. The colors coordinate so well with lots of different solid color blooms.

Shannon, whhhyyyyy😱 did you have to go this to me?

I've peaked at the peonies mamajack has offered, and I'm drooling I really don't want anymore peonies, right?

Why not, Annette?? Such a good deal!

Shannon said: I ordered 7 ....Now how am I going to hid these from Paul

But how could he expect you to resist, Shannon?

Well we are moving BACK to Virginia ... ASAP so now I have more plants to go back to Va
And I plan on bringing all the evergreens we bought for this house back also

A 'good deal' is only a good deal if you have any place to put them. I am sure I can eeeek out just one more spot in the sun even if I have to build a new flower bed to accommodate it. Along with my new iris and day lily babies.

Will evergreens from Rhode Island grow in Virginia?? Did you mean trees, bushes or plants? All three??

Most of my plants are trained to jump into WalMart bags by now The peonies I have now have lived in four gardens in the past 10 yrs BUT, this will be our forever HOME this time. It has 3 1/2 acres a lot of sun and shade for my hosta that still have not been planted from the move up here

We can't handle the weather and the people are not nice like back home. Our friends have been doing the running around down south with the house for us. .That's home and family

The evergreens are aborvite's 4 of them will live in Va a baby blue spruce of course my variegated hollies will be going back home. I am going to try to convince Paul to let me take the dogwood and the Thundercloud Plum also

You did find a house? Yea!!!! I want pitchers after you move!!!

Yes, we finally did needs a lot of work . But , it has Pauls garage and a basement to start baby plants

Thank y'all so much for helping with this sale

Thank you very much for telling us about it, Shannon!
