The rare beauty of this mid-season peony<br />
comes from its delicate looking petals that<br />
have the appearance of pink parchment<br />
suffused with tiny rose colored dots. Strong<br />
34-inch stems are impeccably appointed by<br />
clean medium green foliage. Truly a plant that<br />
should be in every peony collector’s <strong>garden</strong>.<br />

This is a white cut flower classic. The plant<br />
is more compact than many, topping out<br />
at about 28 inches, but its blooms are large<br />
<strong>and</strong> nicely <strong>for</strong>med. The petals have good<br />
substance <strong>and</strong> often carry a blush of pink<br />
upon opening. Carpels at the center of the<br />
bloom are green <strong>and</strong> that same hint of green<br />
can show up effectively on the outer guard<br />
petals. Klehm<br />
