Peony

Paeonia lactiflora

4.9(134 reviews)

Peonies are among the most beloved garden plants in the world. Their enormous, fragrant blooms in shades of blush pink, deep crimson, and pure white are the highlight of the early summer garden. Once established, peonies are remarkably long-lived — a well-planted peony can bloom for 50 years or more with minimal care.
