It's All Promise

Working in the garden yesterday I noticed the first tree peony bud; it's always a thrill to see. Snow last week, buds this week and by the end of May this will flower. There is a haze of magenta on the hills and mountains while around the pond it glows that almost florescent green, I love spring.

  1. Peonies...one of my favorites, yet there are none in my yard. That needs rectifying soon. Thanks for the reminder!

    1. Another 2 weeks or so for these beauties India, I'll post photos when they bloom, still hoping that another one of the tree peonies has made it through the tough winter. There will be no bloom this year but I think I'm seeing signs of life at the base.
