My Favorite Flowers.
I'm kinda picky when it comes to flowers. I don't like roses really. And lilies aren't all that great for me either. (Too messy with the pollen!) I tend to love cheaper flowers... Carnations. Daisies. Tulips are lovely too.
But the one flower I do love that can be quite expensive is the peony. (Preferably pronounced "pee-a-knee.") They are on the expensive side (about $8 a stem) and are only available in the Spring. (I tried to get them for my late July wedding nearly three years ago, but could not. No matter how much I offered to pay.)
Today was the first day I was able to find a good few stems, which I located at Winston's on Boylston. And they are beautiful!
I can't believe I found coral peonies! Those are really difficult to find! Winston's even had a deep burgundy color too. But the coral peonies are my absolute favorite. So I took two (on the verge of blooming) and two white peonies (in bloom).
I may just buy some every week throughout the rest of the Spring. This is the only time of year you can really get them.
