A peony with pale pink flowers is the most classic edition of this species. The double flowers that seduce with rich, fluffy petals that take on a subtle colour. This perennial grows in quite compact, tall tufts that reach their full potential after two to three years. Lush peony foliage consists of palmate, dark green leaves that form a stunning beauty with bright flowers. The light pink peony wonderfully decorates gardens and allotments. It is the most commonly grown variety for cut flowers. Its excellent durability and exceptional decorative features make peony valued material for bouquets and decorations for various occasions.

Peony prefers quality soils that are rich in humus, preferably enriched with compost or manure. A sunny and warm situation helps the plant produce more flower buds. A peony tuft usually flowers in the third year after planting on the given spot. During that time, leaves remain the main attraction of the plant. Make sure that the soil stays moderately moist in spring summer. You can mulch the site with bark what would improve water capacity of the soil. Paeonia is a long-lived plant that survives many years without replanting. It shows high tolerance to low temperatures, but in the first years of cultivation it is recommended to protect the seedlings against frost.
