Kotka Peony Park

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

We do not have ANY photos of this Garden!

Rose and peony (public) Garden

Listing last updated on Wed Aug 2024

Kotka,
Finland

Established 2020.

[From the website of pioniseura.fi:] The location for the peony park has been decided upon together, involving The City of Kotka as well as The Finnish Peony Society. The location at the corner of Puistokatu and Urheilukatu, next to the recently renovated Gunpowder Cellar, was chosen. It is both favourable for the peonies, as well as centrally located for visitors. The construction of the peony park will begin this Autumn by planting about 200 peony roots, which represent about fifteen different varieties (Updated on 27 October 2020: a total of 250 peony roots, representing 58 different varieties were planted in autumn 2020)...... The objective of The Park of a 1000 Peonies will be pursued by expanding plantings over a timespan of several years. This will be carried out by increasing the number of different varieties, resulting in impressive peony borders of both early blooming varieties, as well as later blooming ones.
