Tree Peony

The tree peony has decided to flower this year - that must be an omen for something.  Back in the garden and will be for the next few days - it is that time when spring is put to bed and preparations turn to summer.  The rain drove me into the greenhouse where I started to put tomatoes into their summer growbags.  I also tried to avoid accounts of events at Westminister.  Quite appalling.  And there doesn't seem to be anything we can do about it.  For now.
