Siberian Iris

June 2021

Siberian Iris are tall, graceful plants with slim, grassy foliage. They are suitable for borders, wild gardens, and along edges of ponds, but not for growing in water. Originating in an area spanning from northern Italy across Turkey and into southeastern Russia, the Siberian Iris does not actually grow in Siberia.

Peonies in Norglenwold


 Old Faithful Peony

July 13, 2022
Planted Spring 2021
Once again I thought this was Old Faithful but " An award winning variety with stunning rose shaped blooms. Flowers are a true red, the reddest Peony you'll find, and as an added bonus, a stunning yellow center when fully opened."

July 13, 2022
I think this is the Armani Peony but thought the Armani was "Armani is one of the darkest peonies we've ever seen. Ruby-red flowers evolve to a beautiful burgundy-red." Will continue to observe the flowers through the years to confirm.
