    Beautiful--I love peonies. Mine are full of buds but not blooming yet. Where we used to live in Eastern Washington, the peonies were really nice, and grew very large, much larger than they do in my current garden in Western Washington. I think they tended to thrive in the colder winter/hot summer environment, but not sure about that.

    Lovely, lovely, lovely!! My peonies popped this week and I can't wait to clip some, rinse out the ants :), and bring them inside. I am stopping by from Fishtail Cottage's blog hop, and am a new follower. Have a great week!

    OMG, they are so gorgeous! Do you think I could grow them in the southern part of VA? I've haven't seen them here.

    LOVE your peonies! My peonies are just starting to bloom here in the upper corner of the Pacific Northwest. Peonies and lilacs are two of my all time favorites... just love this time of year!

    I came over from Fishtail Cottage,

    Everything looks beautiful, I have only one peony bush that was here when we bought the house. It has already bloomed but was very shot lived this year. I only got one bouquet to enjoy this year. Thanks for stopping by Nanniepannie.

    Your peonies are stunning! I love that third oned. Your yellow iris have a very bright, striking color too. I loved seeing your garden today.
