  2. Thanks for coming to visit my blog. I'm so glad you popped in so I could come over and have a look at yours. $1. a peonie. That's a good deal - mine would cost at least 3 bucks a stem, in my mind only. Great way to make some extra money and get the kids involved. I love peonies too. I guess you must have variety to keep them coming for some time. What a neat farm/business. I gotta go now so I can read the rest of your blog. I made those does. I start with chicken wire and just keep on till I finish. It actually takes longer than clay. In a past blog, I tell more about them. Type in red dog at the top left of my blog and it will take you to the specific blog. Also, another paper mache piece of a woman (type in Picasso Redux). I have a life-sized horse in my dining room I'll be showing soon. (paper mache of course).

  3. Hi, I just spoke to you on the phone- you have a great energetic voice. I an looking for only Dark ruby red - magenta double or bomb peonies for a June 19th wedding. I grow a few Felix Crosoe. That is the color or Edward Flynn, L'eclante, Felix Supreme.
    If you have 4-5 dozen Tuesday, I could drive up after school from the Vineyard.
    Glad I found your site. Thank you Victoria

  4. Hi Victoria, I will email you photos of the darkest peonies I have. They are not doubles, and they are on the small side. They are an antique variety that I got from an old farm here in Rehoboth. They have a strong and intoxicating scent! Obviously they are from before the time when breeders got hold of things-usually breeding for looks and size and forgetting scent. I don't even think they have a name. I am hoping your email shows up when I click on your name above...hmmm, let's check.
