Signs Of Life!

A while back I promised roses and peonies.
And here they are. It rained about three inches in the past three days so everyone is a little waterlogged. I figured I had better get these pics before they completely keel over. Black spot is going to be bad

Pictures below the cut that beg your suggestions! So, hubby-darling and I recently relocated to beautiful North Carolina. We traded our crazy gigantic rental home in Arizona for a squeezy little townhouse, which, by the way, I actually prefer. It’s
