I love the traditional long, narrow peony beds that line many farmhouse lanes, and wished to add my own. Unfortunately, peonies are expensive, and I had over 100' of bed to fill! The New Peony Farm came to my rescue, offering a "grab bag" special of 24 divisions for $65. I ordered two back in September using their online system, and received confirmation via email. I knew from the website that they would ship at an appropriate time, and they did, and my credit card was not charged until then. The package very considerately arrived on a Friday in mid-October and I was able to spend Saturday getting the plants all tucked into the new beds. The divisions are very large, with variable number of eyes, but usually 4-5 each. The roots were packed in moist spaghnum moss in a plastic bag and arrived in great condition.

I know not much will probably happen next spring, but I can't wait for spring 2008! Hopefully, there will be a wide mix of pinks, reds and whites and plenty of flowers to take to the cemetery on Memorial day. I also ordered the company's book on peony growing and have a feeling I'll be ordering from them again, once I'm truly hooked!

Update in April, 2007: Every division that I planted last fall has 4-8 sprouts. 100% growth for 48 plants, which I find impressive, as we had some horrible cold and some heavy late freezes.

I am a senior who love peonies. My wish is to add to my collection new variety. I order a few times from this company. They are above all better than anyother order I have recieved. The roots are paked very well. I am very satisfied with the service and the beatuiful flowers which growed from the roots.
