Peonies are perennials and are known to live for decades,

even generations. 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 the investment in your garden.
