The peonies begin
Finally, those fat peony buds are opening. We’ve had two warm days and the peonies and the roses have leapt into bloom. We are happy.

Peonies-my favorite flower ever! It is too warm for me to grow them in my climate-so I will enjoy the beauty of yours!

It’s gorgeous! Mine are just about finished.
Beautiful I so wish we could grow them here in Savannah.

A gorgeous bloom of shades of pink, do you happen to know the name of it? My peonies should open any day now and I can hardly wait for fragrant bouquets in the house.
Gorgeous shot of a beautiful bloom! I love the soft pinks of peonies and am still waiting for mine to bloom (white with pale pink on the edges). Wendy
Love the pink ones! My peonies are done her in the mid Willamette Valley–they just don’t last long enough!
I have a weakness for peonies as well. One of my bushes has started to bloom and I’m looking forward to the others. Your photo is lovely and the flower has an interesting shape.
The pink peony looks so delicate and lacy. Beautiful
Gorgeous!

I agree to your title my peonies are starting to open. Great shots with your peonies they smell good too.

gorgeous colors! i wonder how big is this.
It’s a beauty!
I’ve developed a fascination with Peonies – I hadn’t seen anything much about them before. Sadly they won’t grow where I live so will just have to keep looking at lovely photos like yours.
That’s such a gorgeous color Sara. Your peony photo is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
