41 of the Best Pink Peonies for Your Garden

If you enjoy peonies, I insist that you must have at least one pink variety in your garden.

It’s the classic color that most of us picture when we imagine the perfect peony. It’s the ideal color choice to highlight those elegant blossoms and evoke a sense of romance.

But pink isn’t just for adding sweetness to the flower garden. There is such a huge range of hues, from deep raspberry to salmon to shell pink.

Some peony flowers even sport a combination of hues, in stripes or spots. Gardeners with a penchant for drama will find plenty to choose from.

In my opinion, the biggest downside to growing peonies is that the bloom period is heartbreakingly short. Most only perform for about a week.

To get around this, choose a few cultivars with different bloom times. We will note the bloom periods of each plant on this list.

If you choose an early, mid, and late-season bloomer, you could have flowers for weeks and weeks!
