Today I'm sharing with you some of my flowers blooming here in WV. Right now the scent outside my doors is heavenly! The wild roses are blooming and it's the prettiest scent. When my windows are open the heavenly scent comes right through the house. We only cut about 5 acres around the house so the roses are all through the woods surrounding our home. In this pic you can see the white roses just trailing down anything they can cling too. Most farmers hate these but I love, love, love them. LOL
Next I have my peonies to show you. I adore this flower and it is a gift from God that I am so thankful for! The scent of this plant is also heavenly and I can't resist filling every room in my home with a vase of them.

Hi Shirl, Oh I love your pretty peonies. The pink is gorgeous. I planted a bush in my new garden in the very light pink. It already bloomed, but I think it needs the frist year to seat itself. I am giving it lots of attention.
Your wild roses are amazing. I would love those all over. Your yard and the surroundings of your home is just beautiful. I can imagine the heavenly scent of all those pretty flowers. So lush and green.
See you on Monday for the porch party. Looking forward to it again this year.
Have a wonderful weekend sweetie.
Love ya, Celestina Marie
Happy Pink Saturday, Shirl. Thank you for being such a loyal participant.

With our little PINK SATURDAY having a birthday this week, I am on "pink overload" and that is difficult to do to me! I'm lovin' it like crazy!
What lovely pinks this week you have, my dear. The better to see your through my rose colored glasses!☺
Have a great weekend. Not all that warm up in my neck of the woods but the sun is out and that makes the day good. I hope you are surrounded by those you love and that you, too, are bathed in sunshine.
peonies are one of my favorites - and these are gorgeous!
HaPpY PiNk SaTuRdAy!

I really can't imagine why farmers would hate them, maybe there are just too hard to work around. I love the pink peonies too, and a couple of darker plants only add to the beauty, I bet your home looks wonderful inside with all the gorgeous blooms, happy pink saturday, Char
Your pink peonies are just beautiful! You have such a lovely yard! You really have a "pink" thumb! This is my first time to visit you and I will be stopping by more often! Happy Pink Saturday!
Roses and Peonies are two of my favorite flowers, if I had to pick a flower = oh my! Your cream pitcher vases are gorgeous and a perfect compliment to Mother Nature's splendor, lovely garden you have. Everything is so green here in VA too, LOTS of rain!

Love your pink peonies!! We are over-run with wild roses, too. Ours have not bloomed yet but will in a week or two and I will get to enjoy that wonderful scent, too.
Aren't we lucky to live in the "wilds"?

Oh, lucky you for being able to grow peonies! I adore them, but they don't grow where I live. Yours are gorgeous, and I think it's a stroke of luck you got a bonus dark pink one, too!
Your garden looks so wonderful and I am just imagining the scent of the roses from the woods.
Happy Pink Saturday!
I LOVE your peonies against the soft green of the vase...lovely!

The peonies are beautiful. I have a big rose garden but have always wanted to plant peonies too. Happy Pink Saturday.

Shirl I have never in my life smelled a peony. Having lived in too hot a climate for so long, they won't grow here and I just don't have a clue what their fragrance is like.
Love them in the jadeite, wow is that ever a combination made to be!
Happy One Year Pink Saturday!
Love all your beautiful flowers and the glassware you display them in! Happy Pink Saturday, and have a wonderful week!
The peonies look so lovely in that green vase! Happy Pink Saturday!

I wish that peonies grew in Fl. I grew up with them in Indiana and so I know how wonderful they smell.
Enjoy them for me too.
Hugs and Happy Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday. This post reminds me of my Mother,she loved peonies and grew them, they do smell wonderful.
Love those giant peonies!
Your peonies are gorgeous! Mine haven't bloomed yet, but they will be a dark pink. The ones you have are the same type my Grandpa used to have in his backyard. I'm finding all kinds of memories today by visiting your blog!
