Basil and Baylys will be at Island Stream Peonies on Sunday 25th October during the Garden Ōtepoti Dunedin North Otago Open Garden Trail, a great activity for the holiday weekend with some amazing gardens to visit - Toni & Doug at Island Stream have an epic tree peony collection and will have perennials for sale on the day, I’m bringing some of our organic heritage tomato plants plus some of our new willow peony crown/plant supports - made from our own willow beds! These are not often available so here’s a good chance to get one

An extremely physically and mentally taxing April/may, digging, dividing, moving, and replanting, a section of Tree Peonies. (Over 120 trees lifted)
We are still smiling, (and talking), ready to get tree divisions out to customers!
An apology to all our followers who received the catalogue and had issues, I am so sorry, and really hadn't anticipated there could be so many issues with opening it! We've had help over night and hope you all now have it emailed in some state of readability. We will be absolutely going to a website from here on in! As we mentioned we will continue to offer new varieties each season, working methodically to organise the trees into more organised and wider rows.
Please continue to be patient with us, we are really trying to work through all the emails asap! I take my hat off to all you techy, computer IT wizards, I wouldn't change from being a plant geek / gardener for all the money in the world!

Happy Mother's Day!!!
All the best, Doug and Toni.
