Peonies

Harvesting these little beauties.....

These are one of my favorite flowers, I will be adding them to my cutting garden soon.

Until then, these digital lovelies will have to do for now.

Double double, toil and trouble?

Love the double blooms, lots of toil and work...trouble??

I hope the only trouble that I run into is deciding on how many to plant!

Love this variety, as it is very different and not known to me.

 Found on Page Dickey blog, this type is the "Early Wildflower" variety.

Love this little grid of rustic branches for support with these peonies in TheryzaWhittemore's garden.The x factor is really looking good here.I love this alternative to metal tomato cages or peony hoops.

Gathering sticks, a pastime from my two large oaks....

The stakes are placed throughout the garden bed and the branches are crossed at different intervals.

Really good looking and serving a purpose for support.

We could all use a little support, couldn't we?
