I sure am! Congratulations on growing peonies successfully in zone 9! I have several that have been in zone 8a for 2 full seasons now with only occasional visits for weeding, no additional water at all and they're doing pretty well. We put in a huge bed last year and transplanted several hundred roots and plan to start retaining walls to plant woody peonies and Itohs this spring.
Hope you stick with us and share pics of your blooms this spring, Staci!
