Shirley Temple Peony
|
|
|
Blush, double, light fragrance, midseason, 34" tall. The outer petals open a beautiful light blush pink and as this peony opens it becomes white. The flowers in unopened cut form actually are blush pink and opens white. An outstanding variety as a cut flower for its firm stems and early flowering period. (Smirnow before 1948) Lactiflora.

Heirloom. A mid-season bloomer known for its extensive usage in the cut flower industry. This pink bomb is very fragrant with its full double blooms. A classic since 1888, its flowers flow freely. May need some support, but beautiful in a cottage garden. (Crousse, 1888) Lactiflora
