Big, beautiful flowers, which often have a delightful fragrance. Good plant for perennial borders, and their glossy green foliage forms a small shrub. Excellent cut flowers. Resistant to nearly all diseases and pests. Plant in spring after the ground warms to about 50F. Peonies may take a season to establish and and produce blooms.
