To fulfill my promise given in my comment on Kathy's Old Fashioned Peonies image, here's my PPPM (Purple-Pink Peony Macro, ☺ ), taken recently (May 30th, 2017) in my garden.
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
I wish I could see your garden Mr. C. - it sounds wonderful and I know your late wife did so much with it. This peony is gorgeous and a beautiful color combo.
