Description

Single, medium size flower opens bright coral pink, near red in northern climates or cool spring. Overlapping layers of large, well-formed petals surround a large, yellow cluster of pollen-bearing stamens, in center pale green carpels with pink stigmas. The flower forms a symmetrical cup as it opens; the distinct shape holds well in seasonally cool and moderate temperatures. Excellent plant habit, vigorous and good grower, a dependable bloomer with ample color on a compact, short to semi-dwarf bush. Attractive foliage, narrow leaflets notched at ends reflect its Paeonia tenuifolia and Paeonia peregrina ancestry. This attractive early flowering variety provides a cheerful splash of color in the near border or the living garden.
