Notice

Colin Mills, compiler of the Hortus Camdenensis, died in late November 2012 after a short illness. As he always considered the Hortus his legacy, it is his family's intention to keep the site running in perpetuity. It will not, however, be updated in the near future.

A family of a single genus and some 40 species of herbaceous perennials and shrubs from southern Europe, Asia and western North America.  Represented in the Hortus by a large number of Paeonies from across the range.  Paeonies are sometimes still included in Ranunculaceae.
