Abstract [eng] The results of investigation on the morphological and decorative properties of Lithuanian peony cultivars and hybrids (author O. Skeivienė), grown at the Kaunas Botanical Garden of Vytautas Magnus University, are presented in this work. It was established, that the morphological and decorative properties of Lithuanian peonies distinguish themselves in large diversity: blossom duration – 10–20 days, blossom productivity – 12–35 units per bush, blossom size – 14–20 cm in diameter, bush height – 70–114 cm, blossoms are single and double. The blossom productivity increases with plant age. 41.6% changeability of bush height, blossom diameter, blossom productivity was influenced by genotype. The detected pathogens Botrytis paeonia Oud., Fusarium oxysporum Schltdl., Septoria paeonia Vest. did not cause significant damage to plants.
