I am very proud of my garden which is why every pic I post has flowers in it, I LOVE THEM! These have to be my favorite flowers, at the moment. The flowers are soooo big, bright, and beautiful :D they bring me joy every time I sit in the yard.

Oh yeah, I have a new soap too. Since people kinda cringed at my soap called Roasted, made with coffee and tallow, I made a vegan version called Café au Lait. Still made with coffee, sadly no tallow.

Ahhh 2 of my loves in one shot! Beautiful on both accounts! My degree is in botany (plant science) [and marine biology]. That is a NICE NICE looking peony! You must have one super green thumb! *green thumbs up* from the plant scientist! LOL :lol:
 
I got lucky with the peonies and I am so happy! Last year, the peonies suffered a multifaceted attack from the bull dog puppy and my toddler. I am shocked that they survived and look so beautiful. I love them:) As far as a green thumb goes, I just plant and learn, give them love and water and get lucky along the way :wink:
 
Both are gorgeous.....peonies are one of my favorite flowers....you must live somewhere warm to already have those beautiful flowers....my plants are still pretty small but give them a few weeks and I'll have some of those beautiful blooms I hope!!!
 
Both soap and peony are really beautiful! The peonies in my area don't bloom until almost Memorial Day. However, it got warm so early this year that I think they'll bloom early. Already the one bush is over 2 feet high. Sadly, the other one looks like it got mowed over early in the season and it's only about 6 inches high. Guess who mowed. :oops:
 
Peonies are my favorite flower, and I really want to soap it! Anyone know who carries the best peony FO? I saw NG carries one, but I've never ordered from them before. Sorry for (kinda) hijacking your thread...
 
We live near Philly and it was so warm here that everything bloomed and life was grand. But now that rain and cold hit us, the peonies look beaten down so I am happy I enjoyed them and shared them with you all. I hope the rain and cold don't ruin the blooms too much, they were brilliant!
