  • I presume you mean the plantwith the seared leaves? It’s looks like  a peony.

    Tree Peony i dont think so, Took more pictures today, it is around 5ft tall and still no flowers
  • It is definitely a tree peony. Why don't you think so?

    Definitely a tree peony.  

    Quite different to herbaceous peonies. 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    They don't flower every year and would already have done so if they were going to - generally in May for me.  The buds got frosted on some of mine this year so those only have foliage, just like yours.
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    I have grown Tree Peonies before and shorter ones have given blooms on much shorter plants, Herbaceous peonies i am familiar with too, Perhaps it needs re siting to another area of the garden

    I've grown these tree peonies from seeds a few times (the common yellow ones) and mine have never flowered until they've got to a decent size. Ultimately it will be a big shrub.
