Peonies Booklet (1st edition)
£6.00
Author Gail Harland
Publication Date April 2013
Peonies are grown for their great range of colours and flower types, their fragrance, and relative freedom from pests and diseases. From the turn of the year, when the bronzy-red new shoots emerge in the company of snowdrops and winter aconites, through to the interesting seed pods and coloured leaves of autumn, peonies are indispensable and delightful members of the garden team. The booklet covers the cultivation, maintenance and propagation of peonies, and contains illustrated descriptions of individual species and varieties. It also describes the structure and taxonomy of the genus, the place of peonies in art and history – and, of course, in the garden.
