#peonytree

Visions of Spring. I walked around the yard yesterday and got some signs that Winter is fading. The long empty Peony bed with shots of new growth. Fresh buds on one of the lilacs. The remains of last year’s Hazelnut tree, hanging in formation. And, finally, the Japanese Peony Tree is budding, too. #gardening #berkeleycountywv #lilacs #peonies #peonytree #westvirginia #spring2022 #hazelnuts https://www.instagram.com/p/CahkmJwr7yZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Slowly but surely, the Japanese Peony Tree’s flowers are coming along. Regrettably, I only see 8 buds being formed. I’m anxiously waiting for broken branches to recover. #backyardgarden #peonytree #berkeleycountywv #ourflowers #perennialplants #japanesepeonytree https://www.instagram.com/p/CNspSf-rx8B/?igshid=ldi8o0g3x5s9

Speaking of the Peony row I’ve been working on, this is a Japanese Peony Tree. Just having the buds forming. It’s very woody. The flowers are like 8” across. Average about 20 per season. They do last longer than the others but don’t have that prominent smell. I have broken my share of branches in these last 29 yrs. I’m sure it’s about 50 yrs old, too. #peonytree #peony #japanesepeonytree #backyardflowers #berkeleycountywv #poorhouseroad https://www.instagram.com/p/CNDN6_XL03z/?igshid=1pay2nvhlzm2e
