Beautiful bloom! Worth waiting for, eh? I've got a big bouquet of them beside me and the scent is heavenly. Peonies are sometimes a PITA but I would miss them terribly if I didn't have them.

And who is this beautiful lady? My whole back garden is in bloom!

Absolutely stunning!!!

I have yet to fall for them. Then again roses only took one plant...OMG I am in trouble.

Thanks Ladies. It was bought as a Goldmine but I thought they were more yellow so I'm not sure. But I did see a lady on another site say hers was like this too. So who knows it may be the right one. What ever it is I do like it.

It is gorgeous!

Very lovely! Does she smell good too?

I love peonies they are so beautiful. I normally like the dark pink ones but WoWzer!! That white one is awesome.

This opened on the same plant this morning. At least it is showing more yellow which it is supposed to be

Very pretty! I love white peonies.:) It's very cool how different the blooms can be on the same plant. It can take a few years for a new plant to mature and settle into the beauty that it will be for years to come.

Congrats on your maiden bloom!

Ditto what Laurie said. Beautiful blooms, Ingrid. :)

I wonder if the centers keep growing and end up like the first one.

This looks wonderful!

Beautiful! I have one that opened while i was gone for the weekend. I've had it for several years and this is its first bloom - will have to grab a picture later!
