1. Beautiful! I looked at mine out front of the house (I don't normally go out that way, just thru

the back) and they've already bloomed and fell apart, so your picture is a nice pick-me-up! One day, I'll get to divide the plant in two, and plant one of the two in the backyard too. It's a nice plant, one that my father got from a civil war nursery, in the Carthage MO area, and it is tinged w/ whitish petals on the bottom ring of the blooms (and the rest of the bloom is pink). It's a hybrid I'm guessing, that we've had to watch these plants closely as we have had folks come by and want the plants.

Thanks for the pick-me-up, and also, your pictures are just beautiful.

2. That is quite a nice photo.

If you cropped it, it would be a stellar shot!

3. I had to do it.

I adore peonies but the store bought ones don't have much scent.

6. That is gorgeous!

Just the perfect shade of pastel pink. I can practically smell it though the screen!
