Sarah is beautiful all the time, from bud to bloom, in any light.
I don’t know how she does it. I guess that’s why she is famous.
She seems delicate, but powerful.
Her bud is like a glass marble, her bloom like a floating taffeta tutu.
Whoever named this peony named her well, Sarah Bernhardt.

Gorgeous. And you got me thinking about who Sarah B. was as I had never thought about the origin of the name before. (Where would we be without search engines!). 😉

I only knew because I read a book about Queen Victoria with a visit from Sarah Bernhardt in it.

Those tight, round buds always fascinate me, and then when they open… wow!
