    One Spring sweetheart i love to get close to every May is my tree peony, Dai Jin,  It is supposed to have red and white striped flowers - well, I had one once but mostly they are all red, all white or sall pink but ten three different flowers on one bush is pretty clever,  But what gets you running to, even in bud is the amazing perfume,  Heavenly. Here it is this morning.

    Lovely peony happymarion, one of my fave plants, mine are still small buds, but show a lot of promise for a magnificent display.

    Amazing what a few hours of sunshine will do to peony buds.  Here they are four hours later.

     These flowers have no scent, but are over 8" across. They usually come out earlier.

     Am growing Alstromeira for the first time, I have always loved these; this one is called Rhubarb and Custard.

    i have three babies, but none have flowered yet. This gardening lark is a waiting game! In the meantime I will gaze at your pics in anticipation...
