Peony Scrumdidleyumptious

Peony 'Scrumdidleyumptious'

Description

Paeonia Itoh 'Scrumdidleyumpious'. Paeonia Itoh 'Scrumdidleyumpious'. An intersectional hybrid. The semi-double and double flowers are a playful mix of cream undertones with subtle pink veins. The flowering season is extended by several lateral buds, which in time produce lovely flowers. The attractive dark green foliage stays clean until the first frost. 

Its intriguing name refers to Willy Wonka's chocolate luring children's story, as it has an abundance of flowers and seductive scent. 'Scrumdidleyumptious' is a wonderful garden plant and our first introduction to a new generation of intersectional peonies by Donald R. Smith.
