Ants are attracted to peonies because of the sweet sap the flower buds secrete. It is a myth that ants are necessary to permit peonies to bloom.



Peonies are long-lived, but slow-growing at first. Garden peonies will usually begin blooming within three years after planting. Tree peonies will begin blooming at about the same time, but will increase slowly in size and bloom quantity. They can live for up to a hundred years.
Reply:It is a Peony. Their big drawback is they attract ants. Be careful if you cut blooms for your house. Leave them out overnight in a vase %26amp; let the ants evacuate.
Reply:It sounds like a type of dahlia but I'm not sure, They come in so many varieties.
Reply:peonys and they come in a varity of colors

once they are in full bloom:

mix water with red pepper let set over night

then shake well put in a spray bottle and spray ground and flowers ants will go away

however if you want them to reblossom they need the ants it's part of the poccess.
Reply:That would be the Peony! I use to be a bad little girl and would pluck off the blossoms because I thought the ants were attacking them! Haha!



The ants actually are essential to the blossoming of the peonies.

Reply:I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Peonies. They can be anywhere from Fuschia to white. They are separate flowers, and not really a bush, but look like it because they are so dense.
