![]() ![]() In 2019 our peonies were awarded a gold medal by the Royal Horticultural Society at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. The Patio varieties have various types of bloom shapes fully double, double and single flowers. They are also able to be planted in borders as they do well in any sunny position. The peony plants themselves feature strong stems and upright flowers. They are specially selected because of their compact growth habit and its ease of flowering in a pot, making them the perfect peonies for the patio, balcony or roof gardens. Patio peonies are the best choice for gardeners who would prefer their peonies to grow in containers. Tree peonies can grow up to 8 feet tall which makes them a fantastic addition to a sunny garden border, they do however respond well to pruning so if you wish to keep them smaller, prune back to woody stems in the Autumn. Tree peonies make a real statement in the garden. Colours range from white through pink to dark red and purple yellows are also available, along with the more unusual apricot shades. Tree Peonies have large, sometimes dinner plate size, flamboyant flowers, very often gorgeously scented, in various colours. Tree peonies are long-lived, deciduous shrubs. Intersectional peonies will die down in the winter and return in the Spring and in the Autumn and Spring they usually have striking finely cut foliage that is green and red in colour. They are reasonably compact, growing to about 75cm tall on average and they require little or no support at all (because of their tree peony framework). Intersectional peonies often flower for a slightly longer period (4 - 5 weeks) than herbaceous peonies and enjoy masses of flowers. They are the most beautiful peonies, sometimes lightly fragrant, with large (dinner-plate) sized flowers in a diverse range of colours and flowers, from single to double. Intersectional peonies, like all peonies, are highly collectable. Intersectional peonies (or Itoh peonies) are unusual, relatively rare and very interesting, they are a cross between an herbaceous peony and a tree peony. Peonies are long-lived, lasting for decades they will die down in the winter and re-emerge the following spring to produce an even better display than the previous year. ![]() Peonies can be early, mid or late flowering which means you can enjoy their blooms from May to July. There are a range of colours from deep purple to pure white and they are definitely one of the most showy flowers in the garden with large blooms. Their flowers can be single, semi-double or fully double and many are beautifully scented. Herbaceous peonies are a timeless classic perennial plant for the garden.
