Bowl of Beauty? One of the prettiest peonies in my opinion. I do love them even though they are short-lived flowers and in my windy spot they wouldn’t last long at all.
They are such a wonderful plant. Here in England I only see them in gardens, but in Portugal they have naturalised in places. Always a delight to come across on a walk
You have the wrong idea about t’ai chi. It isn’t very physical or heavy breathing. But in principle you are right. I think we’re using them because we need to move around to observe the leader sometimes but it may be an insurance thing, because of the group. I would prefer not to but it was preferable to watching and trying to join in using Zoom on my phone 😊💕
A beautiful flower!!

Gorgeous. I have never seen a peony, as it’s too warm to grow them here.

I’ve never grown them so hadn’t realised they were short-lived until now. Still think I’d like to have some though in garden.

We’re seeing a lot of peonies on our daily walks at the moment. Just superb. Like a frilly petticoat below a ball gown.

I thought it wasn’t a good idea to exercise wearing a mask? They get very soggy!
