Peonies

Peonies are by far my favorite flower. They are so gorgeous. I have several plants in my garden and can't wait each year for them to bloom.

Just a couple more months!

I do wish they lasted longer than a few weeks, because they add so much beauty to my garden.

Their blooms have a very strong fragrance which is lovely outside, but I find a bit overpowering indoors. I love bringing cut flowers in the house though, so I do sneak some in once in awhile. :)

Here are a few of pictures from my garden:
