…and they smell wonderful! 😁
@UnclePJ Especially the older varities. The new ones aren't as fragrant, I've noticed.
@DoomsdaysCW Ill take your word for it. I’m only a smeller of flowers, it’s APJ that grows them. We have one that just bloomed that has a lovely scent.😊
@UnclePJ Yeah, I'm discovering that about peonies and lilacs. The newer varieties aren't as strong smelling, so I've been keeping the "golden oldies" going. I managed to get two more lilac bushes going from cuttings, and their blooms are just as good as the mother tree. I'm hoping to divide up / move one of the peonies that isn't getting enough light.
@DoomsdaysCW I’m assuming the peonies have seeds? I didn’t know you grew lilacs from cuttings… that’s pretty darn cool. If I asked APJ about it, I’m sure she’d know. We have a young lilac and it smells pretty amazing! Don’t know it it’s old or new or even what variety it is. I’ll have to ask.

Best way to get more peonies is through divisions. They actually take well to relocation.
