Peonies

Why do you only ship in the fall? 

In our short growing season, Fall is the safest time to ship bare root peonies.

Peonies need to be dormant in order to withstand the shipping and replanting process. 

 

Why do you only ship peonies bare root?

Basically, we ship bare root to make shipping more affordable for our customers. Potted peonies are very heavy and could inflate dramatically inflate shipping costs.

Do you sell potted peonies?

Currently, we do not sell potted peonies.

For herbaceous and itoh peonies, how many eyes can I expect in my division?

We guarantee our divisions will have a minimum of 3-5 eyes.

When will my card be charged?

We charge your card at the time you purchase the peony root. However, if for some reason we cannot fulfill your order, we will immediately provide you a full refund. 

What is an itoh peony and how is it different from an herbaceous peony?

Itoh peonies are a cross between an herbaceous peony and a tree peony. Like an herbaceous peony, itohs will die back during the winter. However, due to their tree peony heritage, these peonies have strong, almost woody, stems.

Itohs have some of the finest flowers of any type of peony. Because of their strong stems, even the largest, fullest flowers will not flop. Also, Itohs have a much broader range of colors than their herbaceous cousins. Yellows, creams, dusky rose/rusty colors and purples are all represented in the itoh family. 

When do you release your peony catalog each year?

We generally release our catalog in July. Some years we also do a mid-winter release.

Email list subscribers are notified each time we release a catalog. You can request access to our email list here.

I just ordered my bare root peony. Once it arrives, how do I plant it and care for it?

Planting guidance will be included with your shipment.

Additional peony planting and maintenance guidance can be found on our Peony Care page.

Do you use chemical sprays?

No. We manage disease and pests by practicing good plant hygiene and promoting bio-diversity on the farm.

Who took those stunning peony pictures?

The gorgeous ones are all done by Anna Miretti - our exceptionally talented professional photographer and friend.

Find her on Facebook. (She also does amazing family shoots) 

We take the product photos ourselves (which is why they don't look nearly as good as Anna's lovely ones!)
