Garden Peonies are old favourites for late spring display, prized for their large, colourful and fragrant blooms. Plants form an upright bush of dark green leaves that stays attractive all season. This single Japanese-style selection has large bright pink petals that are speckled with deeper pink surrounding a golden-yellow centre. Excellent for cutting. Midseason. Peonies seldom need to be divided or moved, but if necessary it should be carried out only in the fall. Flowering is always best in a sunny location. Trim off all of the old stems in the fall, to help prevent disease problems.
