Visitors to the farm/gardens are amazed at the beauty they see . The flowers in bloom are indeed gorgeous and a sight to behold. And for our locals, those who had not visited the farm before were astounded that we have been at this location for over 5 years now and the number of peony varieties planted (over 2,500 peonies).
The gardens will be open to the public until June 28. 2015 from 11am to 4pm. Do come and visit!
From May 15 to June 28, Peony Farm is once again opening its farm to the public for the much awaited blooming of the peonies. During this 2 months window, peonies of different blooming periods (there are 7 of them) will be opening 7-10 days apart. This is why some peony lovers choose different varieties in order to enjoy an extended blooming period.
Peony Farm will be posting photos of peonies in bloom at:

To ensure that your selection is reserved, place your order early as they move pretty fast. Also, check out the new selections coming this fall at the website Peony Farm.
The peonies are sprouting now and it’s delightful to see stems developing from those pink eyes. The very early to early varieties have as much as 12 inches of growth.
It is also delightful to see the plump leaf buds forming on the tree peonies! They’ve weathered the fall conditions and are doing beautifully.
Check out how plump the developing eye of Henry Bockstoce is, as it breaks ground
I’ve also added some new varieties this year and will be posting the pictures shortly.
Hope you are having fun discovering the new growths in your gardens!

During the months of May and June, we open the gates so that visitors can come and visit the peonies in bloom. Visitors from the Sequim Chamber of Commerce, local residents’ visiting family and friends, people visiting the Olympic Peninsula or the Twilight site of Edward and Bella – our customers, their family and visitors delight us with stories about their own peonies.
I’ve always felt that a visit to the Peony Farm is a way to de-stress, because of the comments we receive. They delight in the peace and beauty surrounding the farm, the fragrance wafting in the air from the peony blossoms and the variety of peonies. They are amazed to discover that there are some many varieties available.
Even non-peony lovers go home with a plant or two to bring back with them memories of their visit.
And, surprise of surprise, upon visiting the Butchart Garden in Victoria, BC, they discovered that Peony Farm is only 20 miles from the Port Angeles ferry! Definitely, Peony Farm is becoming a destination venue for people visiting the Olympic Peninsula along with Olympic National Park, Olympic National Forest, Hoh Rain Forest – check out venues at Destination at the Olympic Peninsula.
Do plan your visit next year! on our Annual Peonies on Parade.
We’ve created a short video to share some of the peonies in the field and some visitor moments …
We hope you enjoy it.
One of my favorite things to do when the peonies are done blooming is to go over the photos I’ve taken during the blooming season.
How pretty the pink peonies are. Field of pink peonies, doubles, semi-doubles, and some singles.
People have asked me time and again, which is my favorite. And as I start the selection process, i realize what an impossible task that is.
I love peonies and there isn’t a single one in my farm that ranks higher than the other. Used to think it’s Monsieur Jules Elie, then it’s Princess Margaret, now I’m leaning toward Walter Faxon!
Whichever one it is, one thing rings true. Peonies are pretty in Pink. Just ask any peony lover.

Summer is that time of the year when Peonies continue to grow underground. Although you don’t need a lot of water, it is essential to water the peonies during these dry, hot months of summer.
Just at the end of the blooming season, Chris, my sister – harvested the rest of the blooming peonies and created some gorgeous arrangements with them.
By the way, for further information about the care of the peonies – you can go to our website at Peony Farm.
