Pretty Peonies

There is nothing else better in a house than fresh flowers. I called my friends at Mitch's Flowers on Magazine Street for a few stems of these pink beauties.




I added them to the Abigail's fleur de lis wine holder (vase) and placed on the breakfast table.

The fattest and most scrumptious of all flowers, a rare fusion of fluff and majesty, the peony is now coming into bloom.
–Henry Mitchell, American writer (1923-93)

Peonies are outrageously beautiful in bloom, with lush foliage all summer long. These perennials may live longer than you do—some have been known to thrive for 100 years. The plants require little maintenance as long as they are planted properly and establish themselves; they do not respond well to transplanting.





The peonies are picture perfect.

  2. They are gorgeous, Ron! I have been wanting to grow them in my yard for years but I think the deer will eat them. They do make the best arrangements, don't they? Enjoy your weekend!
