perfect peonies

Once Spring arrives it means 3 things when you survive through another Winter, 1) snow is melting and summer is arriving, 2) bbq season is around the corner and 3) PEONIES are in bloom!!! Not only are they my favourite flower they remind me of my childhood in Miami.  My mom always had weekly peonies in the house and the smell is not only amazing but it reminds me of home.  The colours they come in are vibrant which makes it hard to chose and the smell is so wonderful.

Peony season is coming to a halt this month so grab a bunch while you still can!









I found a great website that explains the varieties of Peonies as they all look different, smell different and last different lengths of time. http://4peonies.com/PeoniesBloomSeason.html.

To keep the smell of spring alive all year you can purchase Archipelago's Peony Diffuser.  It is available online at http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=483802 and http://www.amazon.com/Archipelago-Home-Peony-Diffuser/dp/B000S5S9N2
