The peony is such a beautiful bloom.
Alas where I live it is too hot for them to grow.
Thank you for sharing them virtually, if only there was smell-a-puter.

This is surreal! I really must add some peonies to my garden. You are right - magnificent!

Peonies are my favorite flower, and this made me smile. Thank you for sharing this stunning bloom.

Wonderful flowers, my mum loved them! Sadly they don't bloom for long, especially when it's wet and windy as it so often is here. Flighty xx

Gifts of Serendipity... smell-a-puter would have definitely been fabulous for this post :)

for such powerful blossoms, it is amazing how delicate these blooms really are. you're totally right Flighty... after one rain they're gone (along with my Oriental poppies). but while they are here, WOW!
