Better Late Than Never

It has been cold this year and rainy and as a result my peony's were late.  Better late than never when it's a peony.

They were extraordinary this year. 

I love the heartshaped petals. 

I purchased a double white peony and when it bloomed it was a single petal pink.  I hate false peony advertising!

I love the scent of a peony but no one seems to be able to replicate it in a perfume without it smelling fake.  If you know of a great one let me know.
