Paeonia
Perennials and deciduous shrubs that flower late spring.
Very good for having bold foliage, showy blooms and, in some cases, colourful seed pods. Some are also scented. Most are fully hardy and some (especially tree paonies) may be damaged by late spring frosts. They prefer sun but will tolerate a little shade, and rich, well-drained soil. Tall and very large flowered cultivars may need support.
