..shame they don't last long isn't it..
Mine are still like this, but at least there's the foliage..

Mine aren't out yet. These are next door's. They are huge, I am sure some measure 30 cm! What are they? Sorry about the poor photo, my phone doesn't zoom well.

@coccinella
looks like a tree peony. May be if they're left unpruned, they grow to such heights 🤔

And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils (roses). Taking a bit of liberty with Wordsworth

thank you
@Eustace
The garden next door is abandoned, they haven't been taken care of for about 5 years.

I split my clump of bearded iris last year and they've come back looking stronger. I think getting baked last year has also helped.
Not long now until their flower.

Here is a peony flower from last June, so I just need to wait for the blooms.

Another peony flower opened today; it turns out to be the same variety as the one I had posted last week; not that I'm complaining 😁
