The Pink Peonies are now in bloom! The pink flowers always bloom after the white flowers which is lovely because we have blossoms for a longer period of time in the Spring.
The only draw back for Peonies is the weight of the blossom. It takes only a few rain drops or a brisk wind to blow them over to the ground.
I planted this particular clump of Pink Peonies more than 30 years ago. We had a huge Catalpa tree in our front yard. Beside it I placed a wood bench with a clump of peonies on each side. The tree has been replaced by a lighted flag pole where we proudly display Old Glory 24/7/365. And, the bench is now gone, but the peonies continue to return and delight us every year.
Happy Spring! Hopefully, we will enjoy many, many more.
