It is described as having large blooms with layered rows of petals. These peonies are quite beautiful planted in a group or as a colorful hedge row. Fernleaf peonies are an early blooming, smaller variety. This intricately detailed peony has lacy foliage which resembles that of a fern. They make a spectacular addition to any garden or flower bed.
Single peonies are basic but just as splendid.
They flower early and open to reveal beautiful, soft blooms. This variety is great planted along a fence or as a lovely background for smaller plants. Semi-double varieties do not have as many petals as other peonies but are still exquisite. These can be identified by a circle of stamens and petals alternating around the center of each bloom. Large, fuller varieties often need to be supported.
