Perhaps nature intended that so their seeds would be deposited right into the soil?Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-32706454507588426242008-06-03T12:27:00.000-04:002008-06-03T12:27:00.000-04:00I love peonies!!

These dark pink ones are new...just planted last year. The blooms do seem smaller than my huge white ones so maybe I got lucky and have some singles!Betsy Brockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807795605763246015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-77247211424672147072008-06-03T08:38:00.000-04:002008-06-03T08:38:00.000-04:00Oh Betsy...one of my favorite flowers...the color ...Oh Betsy...one of my favorite flowers...the color of this one is just gorgeous!

So I bought two and thought they were both single blooms. I got home and planted them and read the labels and one, the red one, is a double. And I know it will bend over when it blooms.<BR/><BR/>I saw some red and white and pinks that were single and after wind and rain they stood tall and were not bent over at all. That's what I wanted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-29674885066173537232008-06-02T21:58:00.000-04:002008-06-02T21:58:00.000-04:00MG ~ Thank you!
