Think I will have to find another hobby, bought a rose encyclopedia last month, just ordered its equivalent on irises..next month it will be the day lily one..which means another bookcase..and before long we will have to upsize the house again...oh..for the lottery..thousands would do...

I will tell my son in law about the Peonies in June, he would love to go and see them, I don't know about thousands on the lottery I would be happy to get one number. Lol
