One Peony, Two Peony, Three Peony, Four!

Pin It By now you know about my obsession with peonies, right?  Well, here are a few more images to add to my collection. A big thank you to my mom and dad for bringing these to me!  :)  Aren't they beautiful?



These lovely peony buds begged to be photographed a few weeks ago.  



A few days later, those buds blossomed.  I just love the frilly pink petals.



And adding a bit of vintage whimsy to the peonies my parents gave us...




Have a great day!

Pretty Peonies

Pin It May 22, 2009

I have been waiting for the peony bushes to bloom next to Reggie's shop. And just over the past few days, some of the blossoms have really become lovely. Not only is the peony the state flower of Indiana, but it was one of the flowers in my wedding bouquet, so I'm rather partial to this natural beauty. My family has always had peony bushes for as long as I can remember. They have a sweet fragrance, and come in several luscious shades of white, cream, and pink, ranging from pale pink to a deep reddish pink. And their petals also vary in shape and size. The ones nestled beside Reggie's shop are cream and pale pink. Here are some of my favorite images from today.

Have a great weekend!
