That’s tough!! We’ve been in this house almost 47 years and this Peony Rose came from my fathers garden so it will be 46+ years old 🤣😍@lifeonaroofterrace

22 May 2021 Lots of buds on Peony Rose this beautiful sunny morning. This time last year I’d to cover the blooms with plastic bags due to gale force winds and torrential rain!! Enjoy weekend everyone. #buds #peonyrose #mayflowers Happy Days 😍💕☀️

Good save Shona! Clever stuff. It's good when you come up with ideas to protect something especially when it can't be moved. 💕💕
