Description
Paeonia lactiflora "Emperor Buttons".
When breaking the soil the shoots colour a deep purple. Leaves gradually change to dark green, however keep a subtle violet brim. The same trendy accent is repeated in the stems. The buttons look like jewels fit for an emperor. Beautifully shaped medium size flowers appear just above the healthy foliage. Multiple buds per stem extend the flowering period. A very cute landscape peony.
