Felix Supreme

Available Week Three

This particular variety holds longer in the cooler and in the vase, by far, than any other peony we've experimented to date. It is classified as a red but it's more of a very hot pink and it holds that color until the petals drop. The intense color make the whites pop and pinks tone down the effect. Moderate sized bloom fits almost any use. Favorite of the guys boutonnieres or for an accent on cream or white cakes. Bud size Double AA. Mid season bloomer usually available week three.

Kansas

Available Week Three

Another one of those varieties classified as a red. Try explaining all the shades of red. I'd say this one is a bit more on the blue side of the wheel versus the yellow side. Does that help? The picture is pretty accurate on our computer but who knows on your computer??? I've heard it described as watermelon red. Rose shaped, I can promise you it is a beauty. And you can tone reds a bit with combining other colors. It really is a fabulous red that when combined with other colors will really pop.  Gold Medal Winner in 1957. Bud size Double AA. 50cm stem length. Mid season bloomer usually available week three.

Sarah Bernhardt

Available Week Three/Four

Everyone knows this one. This lady has been around forever and her reputation for lasting about that long too (forever) in a vase is well known. The Madame of peony, Sarah has many shades of pink. Originally a bubble gum pink, but crossed so many times over the years probably with the assistance of bees, we often see Sarahs in ranges from soft, blush pink to a warm dark pink with red flecks. Our newest fields of Sarah tend to be very blush with little or no red flecks. So you can specify the old or the new color of Sarahs when you order and we'll do our best. This is one we can add stem length if you need it for large, tall arrangements. Just let us know early so we can cut to order. Bud size Triple AAA. 60cm stem length. Late season bloomer usually available week three or four.

Florists absolute favorite for bloom size and vase life Just harvested ready for he cooler Our new fields have blush Sarahs Sarah blush

Monsieur Jules Elie

Available Week Three

Beautiful rose pink, double bomb blossoms. The small buds are very misleading. The very large bloom has a moderate fragrance. Perfect for large arrangements or in a bud vase alone. We’ve never had time to count all the petals. A favorite of DIY brides and florists maybe because of the many different sizes of the flower from the smallish first bud size (cake and hair ornaments) to the huge bloom when fully opened resulting in a ‘multi-purpose’ flower. Bud size Single A and Double AA. 60cm stem length. Mid season bloomer usually available week three.

Blowsy blooms perfect for romantic bouquets Buds can look like peppermint
