| Anniversary And/Or Other Special Events | While not directly our celebration, The City of London is celebrating its Bi-Centennial in 2026. The Peony is the Civic Flower and we are working with the City (Horticultural Division) filling in some blanks about the history of the peony and London; how it came to become London's Civic Flower and sharing information about Percy Saunders and Lyman Cousins, two peony hybridizers from London (and we feature Cousins and Saunders peonies in our peony bed located at the Wellington Road Tourism Information Centre). | ||||||||||||
