Peony Early Glow

Peony Early Glow

Description

Paeonia herbaceous hybrid "Early Glow". Petals open light yellow and turn into translucent ivory. Several rows enclose a heart of yellow stamens and red tipped stigmas. 

Beautiful like the moon and as complex as us earthy creatures, a cross between P. "Roselette's Child" (P. lactiflora x P. mlokosewitschi x P. tenuifolia)  x P. "Cream Delight". 

Several side buds extend the flowering season. Pollen bearing stamens are a plus for the bees. Abundant seedpods are a bonus for whoever wants to grow new offspring.

Avocado green foliage and sturdy stems make this an ideal garden plant. The growth habit is slightly spreading, requiring up to one square meter per plant.  Complimented with other peonies or flowers in warm or pink tones the combination is stunning! 

Registered with the American Peony Society in 1992.
