a paeonia festiva maxima from my mother's house, one that she got from ruth bogen across the street. |
lady's mantel, a/k/a alchemilla mollis, in bloom. the leaves are nice too, but the camera wanted to look at the flowers. |
one of the happy peonies that came with my house. |
astilbe from mary kane's garden, down the street from ruth bogen's. |
this peony? i have no idea where it came from. i might have bought it at a garden club sale. |
What lovely photos. It's good to have flowers that came from your mother's house. A wonderful way to keep her with you.
ReplyDeletethe pink one with the yellow center is just spectacular!!!
ReplyDeleteLove peonies! Mine are a dark pink and they came with my house too. Almost lost in the backyard re-do of 2007 but I saved them from the dirt pile and they are going strong!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blooms. Peonies are my favorites, remind me of my wedding.
