Peony 'Duchesse de Nemours'

Description

Paeonia lactiflora 'Duchesse de Nemours' The outer petals are inverted to form a bowl containing a compact flower with dense petaloids. This free-flowering variety has glossy green leaves and several side buds that extend the flowering period.

This is one of the most widely grown cut flowers in the professional sector and a few flowers will fill a room with its very special perfume.

A plant support is required in the garden due to the slender stems.
