She seems so lonely where she is. So how about some company in the form of other growths that might make her shine even more or take over from her in the leading role once her season is over?
Peonies get along well with various perennials such as lilies
Suitable plant partners for peonies
You don't necessarily have to plant peonies as solitaires on an open lawn. Shrub peonies also do well in combination with these specimens, for example, if they are placed in the background:
- lilac
- Kolkwitzie
- Kerrie
- bamboo
Perennial peonies go well with bulbous plants that bloom in spring. These include, for example, March cups, daffodils and grape hyacinths. These perennials also look good next to them:
- goose cress
- columbine
- sage
- asters
- christmas roses
- daylilies
- cranesbill
- Purplebells
- catnip
- lady's mantle
- ornamental grasses
tips
It is best if you choose companion plants that bloom before and/or after the peony. Thanks to this, the location of the peony looks appealing for a long time.
