Blooming from early to midsummer, this old-fashioned favorite produces huge soft pink flowers. The fragrant blooms add to its appeal and make gorgeous cut flowers. It was selected as the 2004 Dried Cut Flower of the Year by the Association of Specialty Cut Flower Growers. Peonies are the perfect plant to add to an English or Cottage style garden in mass for a dramatic effect or as a specimen. Once established Peonies can live for 50 years or more!
