These flowers are soo beautiful! I've never had any-I guess our climate is not right for them here, but I've seen them in Alabama.

Delicate and perfect -- we used to have red ones in our yard in Oregon. I like yours better! (Another non-existent flower in Florida.)

Layer of petticoats is a perfect description. Reminds me of the layers we wore when I was in high school. I even lost mine on a heap on the dance floor at homecoming once.

Nothing like a bouquet of Peonies to make a room come alive with their sweet, delicate perfume! Beautiful!
