Question:

How and where can I buy peony plants?

Answer:

Peonies are usually sold as bare-root or container-grown plants.  Bare-root plants (often sold via mail-order) are best planted in late summer or early fall.  Container-grown peonies (often sold from local garden centers) can be planted in the landscape at any time from spring to early fall.
