SPEAKING of red peonys...

I bought one to mark a pet's grave and it hasn't died, but it hasn't
grown one inch. Last night i noticed the very tips of the leaves are
trying to yellow. I fertilized and watered it and am hoping for a big
pretty bush!

(sorry you got pink)

I think the composition of the soil affects flower color as well.
