Peony



Peony plants are one of those wonderfully fragrant plants with rather large blooms. The blooms are so large and heavy that you'll need to stake or hoop them, a small price to pay for such a stunning flower.

When planting the tuber make sure it is no deeper than 2 inches deep and don't crowd this plant as disease will travel one plant to another via the leaves. Plant them in a humus rich soil that is well drained in full sun and you should have trouble free beautiful flowers. Plant in the fall, however planting in containers in the Spring is fine.
