Just saw this and wonder if you might know the answer for me - I planted a peony last year, didn't expect much last year but had a single bud that died on the stem. Again have a single bud but not very big. Gets fair sun, but I am concerned am on clay soil, although I have put lots of soil conditioner in. Wondering if moving it this autum to a pot might help??? Or is it the lack of sunlight - only gets sun about half the day. Any answers would be appreciated, I love peonies but am concerned I have bitten off more than I can chew with this one!

( forgive the spelling ) I can't wait to prune some of it back for the first time and be able to use it.
hehe...my problem-we have around 3,000 sq. meters of land, some of which is occupied with sheep, a few chickens, lots of rabbits and me. I keep bringing 'stuff' home to plant in the garden for my florist garden and now the sheep are on strike! Yesterday I came home with a huge euonymus I salvaged from a customers garden and the sheep actually came at me with signs saying 'HELL NO-WE WON'T GO' and 'STOP THE PLANTING-WE NEED GRAZING GROUNDS!'
I have an eye on this one 3 meter long ivy 'Natascha' trail that is just WAITING to be cut and used in some wonderful arrangement! AND I saw this evening that my Cotinus bush is growing in leaps and bounds...yay!!!

do you REALLY want to know what we mix in with the soil?

Horse turds!!! Honestly!! Neighbour down the road has a horse and 3-4x a year we go and load up a cart full and spread it around the garden...works WONDERS on corn and co.!!
