My own Peony!!!

What makes this picture of a peony different from any others I have posted...
it is from MY YARD!!!!!
YAY!!!!   Having a yard is the best!
(remind me that later when I have to weed! ha!)

 

 

I impulsively bought a small peach peony plant at Home Depot (no idea what type and the tag was generic), then I impulsively bought a 'Sarah Bernhardt' Peony when I bought some new plants for along the side of the house.  And by impulsively I mean, I didn't plan on buying them, nor do I have a place to put them....Well I am going to put them in the perennial border on the side of the house BUT some hosta need to be removed first.  So right now they are still chilling in their containers needing to get watered way too much! haha Hopefully Colin will have some time soon to help me get them a permanent home in the ground.

 

I only got one good bloom from them this year, but I'll get more next year! Peonies are up there as one of my favorites, they are just so amazing!  I always said when I have a big farmhouse and a large barn (aka shed or garage-no animals) I would line the barn with peonies and have a big peony party every year! haha!  Well not sure the farm house and barn are going to happen, so perhaps I should start lining the side of my detached garage with peonies...... : )
