FFF7 - PEONIES AND ORCHIDS

Peonies are quite sumptuous flowers that lend themselves to quite spectacular displays in arrangements, especially if complemented by other exotic blooms like orchids. We haven't had much success in growing peonies in our garden, but bouquets are available at florist shops, so one can enjoy them when in season.

    Beautiful Peony, the color is awesome!
    I've never seen that color before.
    I haven't had much success in growing peonies in my garden either.
    But a gardener told me I may have planted them to deep.
    Have a nice weekend.

    What a stunning bloom! I've never seen a peony that color before. Peonies are our State flower (Indiana).
