My short words
The elegantly arrayed Pink petals and the ivory tender petals.
I couldn't help gazing the flowers :o
After raining, the raidrops were on the petals and shining. (Photo 2)
Memo[edit | edit source]
(These memos are the same as the white peony flower page on Mamin Photography site.)
- There are several hundred cultivars. [6]
- Those cultivars were improved in several Europian countries after bringing the original species from china. [4]
- Usually chinese peony flowers start blooming in late spring to early summer. [6] However it started blooming in early summer in Canada. So I categorized this plant to 'Summer Flowering Plants'.
