It's Peony Season! by gardencat

It's Peony Season!

It begins with the tree peonies and, once one variety starts opening, the others follow very quickly.
This is a red variety but, unfortunately, I can't tell you it's name as it was supposed to be something else ( a purplish pink one). It was shipped to me as a little stick and, it wasn't till it bloomed for the first time, a year and a half later, that the mistake became apparent. The nursery offered to replace it, if I sent it back, but at that point, after having watched it through two winters I couldn't bear to dig it up and wait for the new one to mature. It is quite lovey but doesn't quite fit the garden's colour theme.
another one of my top ten favorite flowers - your composition and the detail is so darn pretty!

In my book, any lovely bloom is worth keeping, glad you kept it.
