Groups of Peonies Peony flowers are grouped according to flower shape. Single, semi-double, anemone, Japanese, and double flower forms are the most common. Although peonies only bloom for 1 to 2 weeks in early summer, by planting early-, mid-, and late-season varieties, you can extend the bloom time to four to six weeks.
Peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Bowl of Beauty') This peony is deer-resistant, easy to grow, and provides a 3-4 week period of blooms. When done flowering, the lush, green foliage can serve as a backdrop for other perennials, hardy roses or annuals.
The resulting plants had the leaf and flower characteristics of a semidouble tree peony but died to the ground each fall -- a major characteristic of herbaceous peonies. In recent years, American breeders Anderson and Hollingsworth created flowers with a whole range of colors (deep yellow and violet) not seen before in tree peonies.
