My peomy didn't grow last year. I think it was because it was transplanted (a friend gave me a piece of hers) and peopnys like to sulk. It has a tiny bud on it this year so I am hopeful, fingers crossed. Yours looks bigger than mine. I think mine has been put too close to a aqualebria. Yours looks good!

Another strong one. I hope I see this many stems again after the first few last year. And maybe blooms now it has stayed put.

Im truly amazed at how tough these plants are....when i put this plant in last year i found mostly 6 to 8 inches of small gravel mixed wth a sandy soil further down, this plant sits behind a drain cover & i had one of the pipes in the background crack open last year spilling washing machine water into the soil for about a week or two which worried me a bit until i fixed the problem...but i guess i neednt of worried at all, theres 2 rose plants in this bed as well wth lovely blooms each year ;)
