What is the flower in the last picture of page #30?



It is a Dianthis called "Black and White Minstrals". I got the seeds
from Thompson & Morgan, http://www.thompson-morgan.com

unless u definitely know what is causing the spot not to grow anything
i really wouldnt jump at moving your peony bushes closer together
because i dont think this is going to solve your problem.
i do think that if u did this u might end up losing two good bushes
that are well established just for the fact of closing in a bare spot.
an idea might be to find a statue or something that would accent
your peony garden and place it on the bare area rather than
start fooling around with something that is really well established.
the only other thing that u could do is get a soil test kit and test
your soil or send a soil sample away to be tested.
good luck, sockiescat.
