Herbaceous peonies are a popular choice for providing colour and drama to ornamental borders in late spring and early summer. They bear large, often double flowers in whites, pinks, reds and yellows, and return year after year.
Unlike tree peonies, herbaceous peonies die back to ground level in winter. They thrive in a well-drained, neutral soil, in full sun.
Paeonia ‘Coral Charm’ bears exquisite coral-pink, semi-double flowers on slender stems. It’s ideal for growing in a large, mixed border, and looks beautiful in a vase. For best results, deadhead ‘Coral Charm’ after flowering and mulch around the base of the plant annually, with well-rotted compost or manure.
