    Pæoner

    Jeg bestilte Pæoner og de kom til tiden. Dog vil jeg anbefale at man bestiller 3 styk af samme farve hvis man vil have noget ud af bedet.
    Jeg er meget tilfreds og vil helt sikkert bestille noget derfra igen.

    This is my first experience with…

    This is my first experience with Peonita, very positive.
    My order was delivered very fast, peonies' roots are very nice - long, strong, not damaged. If everything goes well, I expect good blossoms this year.
    I'm happy. Thank you!

    I ordered the peony Pastelegance (bare root), and it was worth every cent. The root arrived strong, healthy, and of excellent quality. The price was also more competitive compared to other sellers in NL, DE, or FR. I’m very happy with my purchase and will definitely order again.

Frequently asked questions about peonies

What exactly do I receive when I order a peony?

A dormant bare-root peony division with 3–5 eyes (growth buds) and healthy storage roots, checked by hand before shipping and packed in breathable packaging with planting instructions. Tree peonies are supplied as young woody plants. Our sizes & quality.

When do you ship peony roots?

We ship dormant bare roots during the planting seasons in autumn and spring, when peonies establish best. You can order all year round; see our shipping schedule for the current dates. Shipping schedule.

Will my peony flower in the first year?

Peonies take time to settle. A 3–5 eye root builds a strong plant in its first year and usually flowers from the 2nd or 3rd year, then every year for decades.

How deep should I plant a peony root?

Plant herbaceous and Itoh peonies with the eyes 2–5 cm below the soil surface, in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Planting too deep is the most common reason a peony does not flower. Plant tree peonies at the depth they grew in the nursery. Planting and care.

What is the difference between herbaceous, Itoh and tree peonies?

Herbaceous peonies die back in winter and return every spring. Tree peonies are woody shrubs whose stems stay above ground. Itoh peonies are a cross between the two: they die back like herbaceous peonies but have the strong stems and large flowers of tree peonies. Explore herbaceous, Itoh and tree peonies.

Which countries do you deliver to?

We ship from the Netherlands to all 27 EU countries and Switzerland, with tracking. Delivery is free from €100 to most EU countries; rates per country are on our shipping costs page. Shipping costs.

Which peony suits your garden?

Herbaceous peonies are the classic garden peonies that die back in winter and return every spring. Itoh peonies combine large flowers with strong stems that rarely need support, and include almost all true yellow peonies. Tree peonies are woody shrubs with very large flowers. For pots and small gardens, see our patio peonies; for scent, our fragrant peonies.

What you receive

Planted with the eyes 2–5 cm below the surface in a sunny, well-drained spot, a peony usually flowers from its 2nd or 3rd year and then every year for decades.
