Beautiful! These are some of my favorite flowers. I need to grow some peony's for next year.
ReplyDeleteI missed the party too. :(
WoRC,
ReplyDeleteSince peonies are notoriously difficult, I'm always happy if I just see one!
Hi Chopsticks,
ReplyDeleteYou dug that peony up, left it in the pot and it bloomed the next year? I am SO IMPRESSED!
WOW! I am amazed! I waited 15 years to get a peony to bloom. Really, that's no lie. And it's just a white one. None of my pink ones have bloomed. I see a new one with buds this year...maybe year 19 will be the lucky one and I will get a pink peony bloom!
Patience is a virtue.
My thoughts went:-
ReplyDeleteOoh...
Ooh...
Ah!
Aw...
Oh.
Wow I didn't know peonies were that finicky. You must be lucky then! =)
ReplyDeleteZoey,
ReplyDeleteYou're way, way too patient! I don't know if I could wait 19 years!
Oanh,
Haha! :P
Jeannie,
I feel lucky to get just one bloom!
