Paeonia lactiflora ‘Do Tell’


Single Peony

USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.900.200


Hybrid Peonies are valued for their colourful and often fragrant blooms, similar to Garden Peonies. Plants form an upright bush of dark green leaves that stays attractive all season. This single-flowered, Japanese type has delicate, light, shell pink outer petals surrounding a frilly, rose-pink and yellow centre. Mildly fragrant. Blooms mid to late season. 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 old stems to the ground in late fall, to help prevent disease problems.
