Double Pink Peony blooms late spring with double petals for a full 8 inch bowl of pink beauty that will bring a soft pop of color and a delightful fragrance to your garden for decades to come. Peonies are considered the 'Queen of Garden Flowers' and for good reason. They are hardy and make a beautiful focal point in the garden or as a border. They are very low maintenance and rarely if ever need to be divided. This peony grows 3ft tall and wide in zones 3-8. Peonies need full sun & neutral soil. This variety has beautiful lush foliage and strong stems, making it an excellent cut flower. Peonies are very long lived and might need to be divided every 10 years. As with all peonies, this one is deer resistant. Peonies rarely bloom their first year, like most long-lived perennials it can take three years for them to bloom prolifically, but it's worth the wait! When planting peonies, make sure the eyes (the point where new growth emerges) are no more than two inches deep. Peonies need plenty of sun- 6 or more hours a day to bloom. If they are planted in a shady site, they will not flower.
