Peonies that come and go

 


Almost open. The last one disappeared, I do hope these will be allowed to be shared by all!




She tore off another bloom!

But we have some others to enjoy! However this also disappeared when I wasn't looking.

Wait, what are all these red beauties doing? More on roses tomorrow.

    Hello,
    The peonies and the roses are gorgeous. Is the deer eating the peonies? Take care, have a great weekend.

    Sorry about the missing peonies. I find them problematic at the best of times because they tend to bloom and flop. They’re pretty in the process, however.

      I even had staked up one of the blooms, which was torn off by a neighbor, so I took the stake home.

    I visited a whole field of peonies a couple of days back - they may make an appearance on my blog some time soon.

      They do look good in a vase, where they are sitting with their faces up!

      I've named the anonymous neighbor the Peony Thief. But I'm pretty sure who it is.

      Prretty sure it's a woman in an electric wheel chair, she drove by and said "I just love Peonies," before they had opened.

    That peony is beautiful! I only have one and no camera catches just the right shade. I have about quit trying.

    As to my iris...go to my other blog here: http://picsandpiecing.blogspot.com/2009/05/irises.html
    It is the first. Shows how dark it used to be. And seeing it from just maybe half a block away, they still look dark. I am too lazy to go look for photos of the them.

    I have no idea why that first line is spaced like that in the previous comment. I did not do that!

      Ha ha...it's a justification where you somehow chose to have the line justified for both sides.
