Peonies are perennials which will live for decades, even generations, and are likely to live longer than you. Some peonies have been known to thrive for 100 years or more. The blooms are outrageously beautiful, producing lush glossy green foliage all summer long turning purplish or gold in the fall, as stately and dignified as any shrub. They are somewhat more expensive to propagate, but well worth their cost and you should think of them as an investment in your garden. Double peonies, which are what these are, are by far the most popular of all peony types and the most widely planted.
