Absolutely losing my mind over my mother’s peony’s this year. I ended up getting my hands on two huge bouquets, and I’ve been photographing them like crazy as I find them around town.

I would love to grow my own (and some other flowers I really love), but I have such a black thumb. Great at keeping dogs alive, not so great at keeping things watered & properly shaded. My houseplants are barely hanging in there. But every year I fall in love with these peonies all over again and I start thinking I need a whole back yard of them.
