    Such a lovely shade of pink. Mine did not come up this year. To much rain maybe.

    Superb peony! That pale pink is much better than other colors.

    Such delicate beauty.

    Lovely bloom, Eliza! Hoping we don’t get more torrential rains, which ruined my peonies towards their end. All plants dead-headed and green now!

  9. And, a beautiful Sunday it is with this gorgeous peony on view for all of us to admire. 🙂

    Gorgeous, Eliza. Inviting like a soft pillow. 🙂

  11. It’s a beauty! Ours have been drummed to the ground by recent rains, so this is a lovely treat.

      Thank you, Allison! I remembered this year to stake mine as they were starting to bud. It is heartbreaking to see them pushed down by rain.

  12. So fresh and pretty Eliza.

  13. I love that gentle pink!

  14. Joanna says:

    How beautiful! The peony buds are just starting to swell here…I can’t wait! One of the most glorious moments of summer. 🙂

  15. Cathy says:

    What a beauty. And I bet it smells divine too! 🙂 Happy peony season Eliza!

  16. Wowsah! What a beauty!

    *SIGH* I was hopeful that one if possibly both of my peonies would be prompted to bloom by all that rain we got this past winter but it was not to be. I’m not prepared to dig either plant up yet, however.

    I can almost smell it:-)

    Just beautiful!

  20. Robin says:

    Beautiful. I love that pale shade of pink. It seems like it’s been a long time since our peonies were blooming.

  21. Val says:

    Simply beautiful! I’d love to have peonies here, but I don’t think we’ve room for any more plants!

    • Eliza Waters says:

      Thanks, Val! I know the feeling. While I have lots of space, I’m limited by what I can maintain. I’ve had to cut back more with each passing year and must show great resolve when visiting nurseries. Not so easy! 😉

    my favorite flower, cool how they need ants to help them open right? they eat the sugars.
