Hypericum & peonies

Kitty, that is pretty!  The only experience with hypericum is Hypericum
calycinum.  It has yet to bloom for me.  I have it in full sun in one spot
and part shad in another.  Anyone have a clue why I'm not getting blossoms?
I've had it at least 4 years now and I love that it doesn't grow more than
8-12" but I really would like it to blossom for me sometime.

On a similar line, I was thinking about yanking a perennial fox glove this
year because it has been in place for about 4 years with no blooms.  It must
have read my mind because it has a beautiful bloom spike shooting up!

Blessings,
Bonnie (SW OH - zone5) Who is going back out and dig another 3-4 foot of bed
for more peonies.  (Lots of organic material going in there with just a
touch of aged manure.)  I can't believe how well the peonies have done I
pots thus far!  I don't want to stretch my luck too far though!

Ceres, Savannah Supreme looks really nice.
We got a Hydrangea Endless Summer for the Display Gardens.  For a year or 2
you could read all about it but couldn't get one, but suddenly it is
absolutely everywhere, even at Meijers.  I didn't get one for myself as I'm
not keen on the globose flower shape, but maybe someday.

I was intertested in your Hypericum because our MG nursery recently received
25 of Hypericum moseranum 'Tri-Color'.  This is a really cute and colorful
little shrub we are going to sell.
