The peony has been a treasured flower in Asia for centuries. And it is no wonder when you look at a peony's delicate tissue paper petals that form the nodding head blossom. Peonies blossoms come in four different shapes. A single shaped blossom has only a single layer of petals around the center. A semi-double has two, maybe three layers of petals around the cent. A double has a crowd of petals so that the center is not visible. A Japanese looks much like a semi-double but instead of the typical stamens in the center, the center is filled with tiny petals or petaloids. |
