Loved this little book. I never knew there was so much to these gorgeous flowers. I also picked up some tips as to why I have no flowers yet…need to wait another two years!

I love peonies, they are the flower I always buy for my step gran. I‘m trying to grow one with no luck currently.

BookNAround I love peonies too. I don‘t love the fact that they need ants to be successful though! 1w
Darklunarose @Clare-Dragonfly hey truely are beautiful! 1w
Darklunarose @BookNAround I didn‘t know that about ants! We have masses of what I call feral attack ninja ants, the peony is in a pot under our lemon tree that the ants protect (scale insects) maybe they will finally be useful! But it‘s probably the climate here making it hard. 1w
MemoirsForMe I may need to grow these and give all the ants around here something useful to do! 😁 1w
Darklunarose @MemoirsForMe 🤣 I know they have. Place in nature! But they should be constructive. One of ours bit a friend near the eye last week while she was weeding here. 1w

"This morning the green fists of the peonies are getting ready to break my heart" Mary Oliver ?. That's what they look like to before they bloom, angry little green fists . Picked these up from Literati yesterday
