Saw these lovely peonies on the way home from work at Bloomies in Rockridge, and I couldn’t resist! I picked up a bundle to take home with me. 🙂
Peonies are a close second to cherry blossoms when it comes to my favorite flowers. I would have made my bridal bouquet all in peonies if they weren’t so expensive! (These three stems alone cost me a pretty penny… :() I prefer when they are still sort of in bud form, rather than fully in bloom and open. I just love their plump, round shape and the lush, tissuey layers of petals… gorgeous!
