I think that’s what I long for most about someday having a house. I can live with almost everything else about an apartment, but I want a yard with my own garden so badly…
The color of that peony reminds me of Raspberry Bubble, aka, the color of my Ishbel. So gorgeous!
Holy cow! Beautiful. I had a peony plant that was vandalized by some kids who snapped off all of its buds. Of course, it hasn’t bloomed since. I bought another and planted it two years ago, and it too bloomed for the first time this year, though to my surprise, its sole bloom was white. It’s still beautiful, but i was surprised nonetheless. Yours is stunning!
Don’t you get so excited when they open!!!! Its gorgeous! Felix Crousse maybe? Rubra plena? general Macmahon? Mine are still in buds….I have so many waiting to pop!
Congratulations – she’s gorgeous! I always wait in anticipation to see ours bloom, too. When they get that big, I’m always amazed at the little stem, and how it manages to hold up such an enormous head of petals!
ACK! I just realized that my bloglines lost your feed or something. I was wondering why I hadn’t seen an update from you in a while!
Beautiful flower!!!
