Dresden Pink
Wild & Son, 1957
Lactiflora
Dresden Pink is one of my favourite peonies for cut flowers. It's late blooming easily adds an extra week. The flowers are very full with concave centres. The petals fade from the outside towards the centre giving the flowers a beautiful look as they age. Fragrance is light but very pleasant.

A Note on Observations
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.
