Peonies

We have received a significant amount of snow this fall in zone 4.  The much needed moisture has been well received and will pay dividends next spring.  As I relax and watch the day drift by, my thoughts give way to planning for next seasons blooms https://zinniaboy.com/planning-ahead/ and I have decided to add peonies to my garden.  Peonies are from the genus Paeonia and are considered to be one of the most popular flowers to bloom in spring.  They perform magnificently in zones 3-8.  The large round doubled layered flowers are stunning and come in a multitude of colors and sizes.  Peonies are fragrant and are sure to delight when you plant them in well- drained locations throughout your gardens landscape.  Cheers
