Peonies

Abstract

Growth Rate Peonies are long-lived, but slow-growing at first. Garden peonies will usually begin blooming within three years after planting. Tree peonies will begin blooming at about the same time, but will increase slowly in size and bloom quantity. They can live for up to a hundred years. Ornamental Features Peonies are grown for their large, showy and fragrant flowers. Most peonies have very attractive foliage that makes them a useful addition to the landscape all season.
