Peony Coral Fay

Peony Coral Fay

Description

Paeonia lactiflora "Coral Fay". Early semi-double flowers in a flamboyant raspberry colour. Since most visitors visit the fields later in the flowering season, this peony often goes unnoticed. But I really like its bright colour, which does not fade, and its slender foliage which is due to its partial ”tenuifolia” affiliation. This delicately pollen-scented beauty requires no support.
