Klehm, R.G., 1980

When I adopted the plants from La Pivionerie D'Aoust, I was very excited about this aquisition. A very underated plant, that I do not see often enough in commercial rotation. It is fantastic. Strong stems, large white flowers with yellow stamens peaking out amongst the petals for interest, and the most gorgeous scent. A really nice cut flower. It could be considered as a semi double, but I have never seen it present as such, it has always bloomed in it's double form here.

Our promise is to provide you with healthily grown root divisions, with 3-5 eyes, and true to name. We take great care in packaging your roots so they arrive in perfect planting condition. If for any reason, during shipping, your package is not to your satisfaction, please send a photo within 48 hours, and we will either replace your order or refund you.

Since planting conditions, and other variables are outside of our control, we cannot guarantee roots once they have been planted.
Observations of height, side buds, and staking are from Hudson, Quebec (zone 5a) grown in full sun, in a clay based soil. In different environments plants will perform slightly different. Instead of 1 to 2 side buds per stem, you may have none. If growing in slightly shadier environment, your peony may require staking. The observations are meant as a general guide, in how your peony should perform in optimal planting. In the case of fragrance, these are observations based on personal sniff tests in the field, we must bear in mind our olfactory senses are all different.
