Early Blooming Peonies Week 2

The early blooming peony flowers with a week 2 bloom rating are mostly single and semi-double flowered with strong stems and vibrant colors since most are hybrid peony types including the Saunders peony hybrids. They are found in colors from pure white, soft pastels, vibrant lipstick red, patterned flowers and even yellow peonies. Early blooming peonies have a wide range of plant sizes and foliage types from fern leaf peony hybrids with narrow foliage to robust large foliage from Paeonia macrophylla parentage.

Peony Windchimes  (Reath 1984) Peony Wind Chimes Lavender pink single tenuifolia hybrid. 35", early season. Blooms face outward. Some say it is a P. veitchii selection but as it produces seed reluctantly compared to the species I think it is indeed a hybrid. The seeds also are duller and larger than the species and the root structure is larger and entirely different than any of the many P. veitchii plants we grow and we have over 30 separate plants to compare it to. Regardless of whether it is a hybrid or not it is a very beautiful peony. $30.00 [Add to Cart for Fall 2012 Shipping]
