Yeah, Teppy, the blooms are very similar. Peonies are pretty common.
Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

Peonies attract ants, don't they? On the bush outside, I mean. I always wondered why that was.

The ants are a part of what helps them bloom, though I disremember exactly what they do.

I hate to even start one of these discussions, but here goes:
How do you pronounce "peony"? I've only ever heard PEE-uh-nee, but I have one friend who insists that it's pee-OH-nee.
Of course, she also pronounces "corset" as cor-SETT, which is just the weirdest damn thing.

Though I say it with more of an "oh" than an "uh" in the middle.

What brenda said. And I had no idea about the ants.
Also, cor-SET is WRONG.

The "uh" is very possibly my lazy pronunciation. Like "twenny" when saying "20."

“Not dead yet!”
PEE-uh-nee
This. More 'uh' than 'oh' but then again, I live in the south, so that could have something to do with it. Frankly, I'm amazed it hasn't been shortened to one syllable.
