Then on to a much bigger job. Moving peonies and splitting and moving a BIG tree peony. I know that in general, peonies aren't over keen on moving house but, Chris gets as much soil around roots as possible. We don't know if the tree peony will survive but it's got 2 chances and 'we done our best, Gov'! It had grown far too big for its spot by the Lion Steps. In fact, one lion was completely obscured. Not so now. We also moved a Berberis in the Sofa Border which has reduced overcrowding beneath a Dogwood and now looks much better. We took another couple of barrowfuls of compost for distribution and mulching before the usual tidy up and bonfire. Whilst doing all this, there was time to spot Snowdrops and Cyclamen popping up everywhere. All in all, a god day's work!
Yes! Sun & blue skies! |
