Isn't it magnificent how the moisture keeps everything green this time of year? Lovely writing spot, Daisy.
Peonies have the most fabulous buds: they take days to open - sometimes even weeks, if the weather stays cool - and then suddenly ... BOOM! They explode on the scene as if their lives depend on it. The layers in some peony flowers are just stunning.
What a wonderful visit to your garden Daisy. I bet that scamp pf a snail will run rings round you. I love the buds of roses as they have so many layers to reveal but all buds hold a story!

My peonies were amazing this year, best yet! I never imagined how full they would become. Over all too soon.
Maybe magnolia?
Oh yes, I have just bought a past its best Magnolia Stellata. I await its next year's blooms. 🤍
