Did you know that Robert Allerton's favorite flower was the peony? Or that his second favorite was the iris? He loved these flowers so much so that he created two gardens just to display their beauty - the peony garden and the bulb garden!

The peony garden at Allerton Park and Retreat Center contains 68 varieties of peonies and you can find sprays of irises all over the formal gardens!

Allerton Park Photography Group took some amazing photos of Robert's favorite flowers this month. Enjoy!

Blows the thaw-wind pleasantly,
Drips the soaking rain,
By fits looks down the waking sun:
Young grass springs on the plain;
Young leaves clothe early hedgerow trees;
Seeds, and roots, and stones of fruits,
Swollen with sap put forth their shoots;
Curled-headed ferns sprout in the lane;
Birds sing and pair again.
- By Christina Rossetti from "Spring"

Thanks to Chris Hendricksen for these reminders of the spring beauty to be found at Allerton Park and Retreat Center!
