I wasn’t planning to blog about the Asplund peony garden when I drove out for a quick look on Saturday, but I just cannot not post some pictures I captured.
Once again, the intense colors and variety of color for one kind of flower is astounding. I am often reminded of what I told my boys once, “God created the colors long before Crayola!”
There were many bushes blooming, some were already done, some were buds ready to bloom, like mine at home…
All were a joy to see.
On another note, the Asplund Farm also grows grapes and had opened a winery for many years, but the winery has permanently closed.
It was a spontaneous, fun and colorful morning.
Glorious color! And shapes… and for some, fragrance! (always fun to try to select a favorite )
It is hard to pick a favorite…for sure.
But, really fun to see so many all together in one place.
Breathtaking! Thanks for sharing.
God’s beauty…always breathtaking, right?
Beautiful photography again Valerie – you have a good eye! Stunning peonies. Don’t you wish the flowers would keep blooming all summer. They are certainly too short lived!
Yes, I do wish flowers would bloom all summer long…
Now I’m thinking, if I’m having a good day, a trip to the peony gardens would be fun. But I sure will miss the opportunity to sip wine and visit on the deck. Thank you for sharing your beautiful images.
I hope you have a good day and can make it out to the gardens…
