Romswood Peony Farm is a family-run flower farm set among magnificent established gardens in the Macedon Ranges, approximately 70 km north-west of Melbourne.
The farm is renowned for its spectacular spring display of peonies, with more than 35 varieties producing beautiful flowers in shades of pink, white, red, coral and other colours.
Visitors can wander through the established ornamental gardens and peony fields, enjoying a colourful display of flowers in a peaceful rural setting.
The farm grows three main types of peonies - tree peonies, Itoh (intersectional) peonies and herbaceous peonies.
