Top Floriculture & Planting Catalog Firm Offers Perennial Spring Collections 

If you want to really stink up the joint - in a good way! - plump for the double, white and pink peonies. That's what you call fragrant!  Gilbert H. Wild & Son, founded in the late 19th century to sell peonies, irises, and daylilies, has announced its 135th anniversary, and the springtime availability of its signature flower, the peony.

The brief - but dramatic - flowering season for peonies runs from late April to early June, peaking at the May midpoint. The plant and flower-growing market size in the U.S. stands at approximately $16 billion, and what is known as the 'floriculture' segment is growing annually at approximately 6%.

The rise in demand for cut flowers - chrysanthemum, lilies, and peonies, for example - is especially pronounced. Other shifts in the market are also at play: the rising popularity of gardening, sustainable living, and even home DIY home improvement triggered in part by the pandemic, have also impacted market demand.

Gilbert H. Wild & Son features both an online shop and a regularly updated blog with gardening tips.  Products are categorized by habitation/hardiness growing zones, the standard by which gardeners can determine which plants are most likely to flourish at their location. 

Peonies bloom best in well-drained soils in full sun but can tolerate certain amounts of shade. The Easy Start Daylily Collection is ideal for gardening novices because daylilies are tough, adaptable, very low-maintenance and some of the easiest perennials to grow.

One customer commented: \"I have ordered from many different catalogs and online shops over the years but I got to tell you guys I am impressed. Packaging was excellent.\" \"All the live plants are green and healthy and the bulbs very nice healthy size. I will be looking forward to fall ordering.\"
