Peony Power [Stuck in Vermont 717]
Peony Power [Stuck in Vermont 717]
Nick Morse is not sure what first drew him to peonies, but he has spent the past 40 years tending to their showy spring displays at multiple gardens in Chittenden County. A retired Burlington resident, Morse cultivates garden beds of peonies at six spots: Shelburne Farms, Wheeler Homestead in South Burlington, McClure Miller Respite House and University of Vermont Medical Center's Fanny Allen campus in Colchester, and Hope Lodge and First Congregational Church in Burlington. Morse is a colorful character with a passion for peonies, and he volunteers his time and money to create these fleeting, fragrant displays.
Seven Days senior multimedia producer Eva Sollberger met up with Morse on a sunny weekend to see his blooms at First Congregational Church’s Memorial Garden Cemetery and Hope Lodge in Burlington.

Nick is amazing, thank you!
I could spend all day listening to this guy tour his peonies and making remarks like “they have to be reminded they can be replaced.” 😂 he’s created such lovely places for the community.
