Peonies in Bloom

Paeonia ‘Cytherea’ is one of the earliest blooming peonies in our Peony Garden. These popular garden plants are long-lived perennials that do well in full sun and well-drained, moist soil. Peonies are also wonderful cut flowers, allowing you to extend your garden’s beauty indoors.
