A Flower Fit for Kings ~ Gardens

  • Peony Characteristics
    Peonies are one of the most beautiful, resilient,
    low-maintenance and fragrant perennials in the world. From Asia to Europe to
    North America, gardeners, photographers and even
    kings have treasured these ornamental flowers.
    In China, the peony is known
    as the "flower of riches and honor" denoting the beauty and value of its
    blossoms. The Qing Dynasty even fancied the peony so much, that they declared it
    China's national flower in 1903.
    The shade of its petals can be pink, rose,
    maroon, red, yellow or white and the blossoms can be several inches in diameter.
    In addition to their lovely appearance, many peonies are also quite fragrant
    making them a wonderful addition to home-made bouquets. Even the thick, green
    foliage that grows around its flowers is a beautiful.
