so, the other day my adventure buddy brought me some beautiful peonies and they looked and smelled delicious…

what I didn’t know about peonies is that they guzzle water like crazy and just possibly they ran out of water…

I added more water when I realized what had happened, but most of them didn’t perk up…

eventually, I tossed out the very dead ones and cut back the few remaining…

and I also put some of the dead ones into a small vase to put in the den because they still smelled delicious…

a few buds went into a small container and they have opened;-)…
