Peony season ends with Sarah, Sarah Bernhardt that is.
Her buds appear as large marbles on the ends of long stems.
The blooms open as delicate pink which makes me think of ballerinas.
The blooms are heavy and must be supported in case of a shower.
Sarah’s performance in the garden is last,
ending peony season with a flourish of pink.
A good actress always ends with a flourish!
