My first herbaceous peony bloomed yesterday Hurray!

This is Pink Hawaiian Coral. I normally do not post this many photos of the same plant, but as this is my first HP bloom for the year, I went to town Big Grin

April 2 - after the storm. By 5 PM that evening, it has opened quite a bit more

April 3 was a bright sunny day and it is fully opened.

Amazing how the flower goes from a bud to a full bloom in one day.
