DO TELL (Auten 1946)
Light pink guard petals surrounding a spectacular center consisting of many staminodes of great contrasting colors in pink, white and purple shades. Fragrant flowers, fine plant habit, the spectacular flowering and the high vigour... a breathtaking peony.
GAY PAREE (Auten 1933)
Japanese form flowers to 15 cm wide, rose or cherry outer petals surrounds a large centre of cream petaloids, edged by pink. Very fragrant and long lasting flowers. Well known, outstanding variety.
PETITE ELEGANCE (Klehm 1995)
Large, semi-double flower made of a blend of rose and creamy-yellow. The lower part of each petal is creamy-yellow but the upper part is of a vivid pink with raspberry streaking and lightly crumpled margins. Almost delicate picotee effect! Flowers are held upright on strong stems. Elegant peony, unique pattern of the flowers, a favorite for cut flower bouquets.
OLD FAITHFUL (Glasscock-Falk 1964)
Flowers large, dark velvet red, double, with heavy substance of the petals. Highly prized, in our opinion, this is the best in its class. Flowers lightly fragrant. Strong stems and healthy, dark green foliage. Excellent as a cut-flower. American Peony Society Gold Medal Winner (1997)...one of the best peonies!
NOSEGAY (Saunders 1950)
Single flowers, shell pink to soft salmon glazed in silver, fat golden yellow stamens surrounding purple stigmas complete a sensational display. Noticeable fragrance. It is a hybrid created from P. mlokosewitschi x P. tenuifolia breeding. Early blooming, very floriferous and vigorous, charming, recommended.
HENRY BOCKSTOCE (Bockstoce 1955)
Full double, huge dinner plate size, rich cardinal red, excellent flowers. True red flower color comes from it being a Paeonia officinalis x lactifora hybrid. The last flowering peony of this hue in the season. Excellent grower, but slow of increase, sparse bush, heavy and tall stems. Highly prized as a cut-flower. Stunning presentation in the garden.
cf. smouthii (Smouth 1845)
Flowers single, pinkish red. Compared to true P. x smouthii, the plants offered have somewhat wider leaves, their flowers are larger, rather pinkish-red than deep red. Flowers slightly fragrant, sterile. They bloom very early. The leaves are highly decorative even after flowering, plant height approx. 60 cm. A wonderful border plant...
CORA LOUISE (Anderson 1986)
Huge semi-double white flowers with deep lavender to purple flares. The contrast between the purple color of the center of this peony and the pure white petals is magnificent – it is reminiscent of the type found on the Chinese Gansu Mudan (P. rockii hybrids). Robust stems hold the flowers well above the foliage. Beautiful, slightly fragrant flowers. Amazing...
