Thank heaven for peonies companion plants

The Peonies are Gone!

So sad to see the Peony Farm after all the peony blossoms had been deadheaded.   All those gorgeous, beautiful flowers gone.

However, my husband was quick to remind me, that we still have all the peony shrubbery dotting the landscape.  And, fortunately, I planted the entrance beds with peony companion plants such as Nasturtiums, Roses, Lilies,  Hydrangeas, Eremurus, Hebes, Japanese Maple, Irises, Boxwood and other trees.

These are now providing the color for the farm.   Check out the  video created by my sister, Christina.  Click on “The Peonies are gone” above.

By the way,  we are still taking orders for bare root peonies of these lovely scented peonies for shipment this Fall 2014.   You can find a great selection at www.shopilovepeonies.com
