Rassberry Sundae Peony
Paeonia lactiflora ‘Raspberry Sundae’
Raspberry Sundae Peony is a delightful and deliciously named garden classic that offers a double helping of beauty in late spring. Its large, bomb-type double flowers open to reveal a captivating blend of creamy white outer petals encircling a fluffy center of soft pink and raspberry-red petaloids. The delightful fragrance adds to the sensory experience. This reliable, herbaceous perennial forms a handsome mound of deep green foliage that provides structure in the border long after the spectacular blooms have faded, returning bigger and better each year with minimal care.
