PEONIES!!!!!!
Seriously...
there is nothing that makes me happier
than my peonies in full bloom in my backyard...
What SUCKS is that they bloom for, literally, 2 weeks and then...
BOOM.
dead.
So, I have to pick them to be able to enjoy them!
My wonderful hubby bought me two bushes for my birthday when we first moved into our home
6 years ago...
The hot pink POP in my kitchen and dining room amongst the black and white is just stunning...
EVERY time I walk into the kitchen, I actually stop and say "DAMN THOSE ARE BEAUTIFUL"...
I am not joking...
EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.
They last a couple days...the ants crawl out of them...and all over our house...
my son gets freaked out...and my husband complains because he just spent the week prior to this getting all the ants OUT of our house...
and then I bring them back in...
I can't help it...
I am IN LOVE.
He understands...
WOW! THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!! (and worth the ants... sorry Craig~ I'm with your wifey on this one!!!)

Those are stunning! I love peonies, too. We have a row of white ones in the backyard, and I lament their short bloom as well. They're huge, they bloom, fall to the ground, and then they're gone. These pink ones are really amazing.
