Peony

Peonies are exceptionally popular flowering plants renowned for their lush, large, and deeply fragrant blossoms that appear in late spring and early summer. Native primarily to Asia, Europe, and Western North America, these long-lived perennials feature attractive divided foliage that remains green throughout the growing season before turning autumn colors. They thrive in temperate climates requiring a distinct winter chill period to produce their magnificent blooms, which range from pure white to vibrant pinks, reds, and yellows in single, double, or anemone forms. Peonies make magnificent garden specimens and exceptional cut flowers, rewarding patient gardeners with decades of stunning floral displays when planted in well-draining soil and a sunny location.
