There is a tradition in my friend`s family that cuts the first blooms of peonies of the year to put them on the graves of the dearly departed.
I`ve thought of doing this for my mother, especially that most of my peonies come from her own garden.
But if she saw me do it, she would probably say "Silly girl! Just enjoy them while you can, in your own garden, and do so in my name if you must. Peony season goes by quickly soon enough."
