Peonies

Peonies are perennial flowering plants known for their large, lush blossoms and pleasant fragrance. They belong to the Paeoniaceae family and are popular in gardens for their vibrant colors, range of forms, and relatively easy care. Peonies bloom in late spring to early summer and can last for many years with minimal maintenance. They thrive in well-drained soil and full sun, and their sturdy stems support heavy, showy flowers. Beyond their beauty, peonies also have cultural significance in various traditions, symbolizing romance and prosperity. They are valued both as ornamental plants and cut flowers.
