Thank you Kousa. TPs are my absolutely favorite plants. Snow Lotus had only one bloom last year; the one that you see on my profile. The fragrance was lovely. High Noon is also wonderfully fragrant.
My garden is very small and I cannot have more TPs. I also love herbaceous peonies, but I have no space for them. Those that I have were just recently planted as the “groundcover”. I want them to look naturalized. They might not have enough sun, so I'll have to wait to see if this approach (of having peonies as groundcover) will work.
Liz, it’s really useful that we compare our notes. I wanted to get one of those woodland Japonicas like yours, but now, when you told me that they are actually very early, I am not sure that they can thrive in our gardens. Please keep us posted.
