The peony's brief season is happening, right now. Hurry to your local florist before it's too late! These luscious flowers are shown to their best advantage either single-stem or in a large, loose mass. No need to add other flowers or greenery...these blooms can hold their own just fine!

The bud vase is from the souvenir shop that is located immediately outside the Kotokuin Temple, home of Kamakura's Great Buddha (Daibutsu). |
I love peonies and I also love how Japan celebrates flowers' seasons. There is nothing more irritating (to me) than seeing tulips or even worse, hydrangeas in a cheesy teleflora vase marketed for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHehe. Tulips for Christmas.
