This beautiful peony is called Karl Rosenfield. Normally this peony is quite a deep red, but as the bloom ages it takes on a deep rose hue and the petals spread out and open the flower up.
It’s quite lovely and it’s quite large! This peony is approximately five to six inches in diameter. Now imagine a clump of them with 30 to 50 blooms! Spectacular!
Happy Canada Day!
I have to buy more of this kind of hyacinth. It looks so lovely in the garden next to the rest of the other spring plants with their light green leaves. Oh and the scent! I love the smell of hyacinth blooms.
I have a lovely pink Hydrangea growing in my back garden, but when I saw this potted hydrangea in a local store I couldn’t resist buying it. It’s now sitting in a plant urn on my front porch and looking lovely.
Luckily this hydrangea is supposed to be hardy in this region so I’ll try to find a place for it in my garden so that I can continue to enjoy it’s lovely deep pink blooms for years to come.
There’s still snow on the ground here in Toronto, but it’s melting. I’m hoping it will be all but gone by sometime next week.
At this point there’s obviously no hyacinths blooming, but I can look forward to blooms like this one soon!
Do you have any spring flowers growing in yard or garden yet?
