A well-selected collection of Peonies produces magnificent, colorful, and fragrant bloom 
of perfect detail for more than a month. Individual blooms last two weeks if cut early and 
handled properly. A plant lasts a lifetime and can be divided repeatedly. Peonies will 
withstand abuse and neglect and will liberally reward average attention. Insect pests do 
not bother them.
