Herbs in the Garden

Peony Buds

I LOVE PEONIES! Sorry, I am yelling.

But I do. I love them. And I love Springtime…and all the other ‘gardeny’ stuff  that blooms this time of year.

But I digress…

Last year these double pink babies did not look so hot, and I really feared they would rot due to all the wet weather we had.

Pink Peonies

Imagine my surprise and delight today when I was greeted with this gorgeous display!

This is just the first of the peonies to bloom, so unless I can control the impulse to take 12 squillion peony photos, be warned. You may get really sick of peonies in the next few weeks!

The Peony and her Bee

Oh, and even better? Besides their stunning good looks, they smell really good, too!

You just have to remember to watch for bees before doing a full face plant into a blossom.
