Delicate and perfect soft salmon pink cup-shaped fragrant flowers. This is an early season variety that produces flowers approximately 6" across. It is more rare but is known to do fairly well in the South due to it being an early blooming variety.
Salmon Saucer Peony- light pink single petal, fragrant
Height: 32"
Hybridizer: Cousins/Klehm, 1981
These roots: these are 3/5 eye roots! We encourage you to plant these roots in the Fall when your ground is workable and barely cover the eyes if you are in a warmer climate (an inch of soil above the eye is good). If the ship date is after your ground freezes, they can be planted in large pots for the first year and planted next fall after foliage has died back. The bigger the pot, the better.
Notes for the South: the coral colored peonies (to include Coral Sunrise/Sunset, Pink Hawaiian, Soft Salmon Saucer etc) seem to have a higher susceptibility to fungal disease than other varieties. When growing in humid environments (like Texoma area) it is recommended to spray with a preventive fungicide every two weeks prior to emergence through July. We currently recommend Draconil but are exploring organic options.
