Here is a lovely ivory peony bloom...I wish the blog could capture its lovely perfume! This peony bush is special, because it is a piece of family history. It came from my Grandma Minota's garden to my first house in Naperville, Illinois, and then moved with us to our current home in Canton, Georgia. It brings me pleasure every year, not only because it is one of my most favorite flowers, but also because it's like a little piece of my grandma every spring (she passed away the year before I got married).

Ahhhh, I can almost smell the aroma through the screen! So glad the plant is doing well.
I LOVE peonies!!!
I also love peonies and have saved some from my husband's grandmother. We find that they are a beautiful reminder of her and grandpa who used to garden in his wooden shoes!
That's a beautiful flower with a beautiful story!! I love peonies too!
