Paeonia lactiflora ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ (Peony)

This peon produces lots of medium-sized, creamy-white flowers with light canary-yellow in the centre, and shadings of green at the base of the petals. Flowers fade to pure white as they mature. Glorious, sweet fragrance; dependable, early bloomer; excellent light green foliage. ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ is an excellent choice for both landscape and cut flower use.

Peonies grow and flower best in full sun but will tolerate some light, afternoon shade. Well drained, deep, fertile soil is essential. Good air flow around the plant is important to help protect against fungus. A good dressing of fertilizer is recommended each Spring, and after flowering if necessary. Clean up and remove all foliage in Autumn to prepare for dormancy. Peonies grow best in cool climates as they will only bloom well if they experience a pronounced period of winter chilling.
