Description

Paeonia is a genus of herbaceous perennials that are prized for their showy and fragrant flowers. They are commonly known as peonies and are native to Asia, Europe, and North America. The large, ruffled flowers come in a variety of colors, including pink, red, white, and yellow, and bloom in late spring to early summer. The foliage is also attractive, with deeply lobed green leaves that remain throughout the growing season. Paeonias prefer well-drained soil and full to partial sun exposure. They are often used in borders, mixed herbaceous borders, or as cut flowers. Some popular cultivars include ‘Sarah Bernhardt,’ ‘Coral Charm,’ and ‘Bowl of Beauty.’ Paeonias can be paired with other perennials such as irises, alliums, and salvia to create a stunning cottage garden look.
