Summer is here at last

[Lindy-C]

At least it is in my garden with the first blooms appearing.

I thought I'd share my current pride & joy, absolutely gorgeous with flower heads 8 1/2" across.......needed to snap a pic before the deer and the rabbits got at it oh:

Any guesses as to what it is? no prizes though

With my gardening skill that would have been taken out as a weedoh::Blush::Blush:

I am an expert in this fieldoh:

No Eileen it isn't.......think "sushi"

oh:

I did manage to grow one from last years seeds....they are exceedingly hard to cultivate especially when they are left outside in the frost anyway, my little seedling survived the elements only to be scoffed by a snail!

 

[dylan]

thought it was a chinese/japanese peony then changed my mind - is it very rare ?

 

[Lindy-C]

Its a Japanese tree peony....fairly rare and flippin expensive in the local garden centre - woe betide any rabbit which comes remotely close - the air rifle is permanently sited where I can grab it quickly

I've just mown the lawns again:Wacko:

One thing I seem to be expert at growingmust have green fingers after all
