A dahlia is a dahlia

And (you guessed it) a peony is a peony.

Nothing but rain here, so I'm reduced to taking pictures of my flowers. Oh, well...

1. They are beautiful flowers, my dear Blue!

I am really enjoying looking at them...I know your growing season is short, so that makes these even more precious...

Thank you!

2. We're having a very cool, wet summer

(kind of unfair after our record-breaking snowfall last winter), but the rain does look pretty on the flowers, and we haven't had to water much. The vegetables are kind of slow (except for the lettuce), but we've got another couple months, so hopefully things will mature.

5. There could be worse relegations Blue.

Lovely flowers. My wife especially enjoyed the Dahlia, her favorite flower.

6. Dahlias do really well up here.

The City, which goes all out with the flowers in the summertime, plants thousands of them all around town, of all different sizes. Some in our Town Square Park have blooms almost as big as dinner plates.
