If there’s anyone who puts on a better show in a garden than a peony, I haven’t yet met them.

For a pure burst of color they’re hard to beat.

I have a few small plants in the front of the house, but it’s this old backyard beauty that was here when we moved in 20 years ago that makes the biggest statement.

Peonies can be fussy and hard to establish.

But if you manage it, they’re carefree beauty that will be enjoyed for decades.

Mine are all done already…*sniffle* one of my favorites!

Love peonies but they don’t grow in our clay soil. I’ll enjoy yours from afar.

Your peonies are the same color as mine! Unfortunately, ours are done for the year. They usually open around Memorial Day.

Ours have also come and gone…but were awfully nice when they were in bloom!

They’re hard to beat once they thrive.
