Paeonia lactiflora - Do Tell
An elegant conversation starter in perennial borders, ‘Do Tell’ features striking anemone-style blooms with pale orchid-pink outer petals encircling a frilly center of deep rose-pink and creamy-yellow petaloids—reminiscent of a delicate fireworks bloom. These lightly fragrant flowers appear in early to mid-season and are borne on sturdy, red-tinged stems that keep them upright and picture-perfect in bouquets. The plant forms a compact, bushy mound of glossy emerald foliage and performs beautifully across a wide range of garden conditions. Beloved for its showy form, fragrance, and ease of growing, ‘Do Tell’ is also deer- and rabbit-resistant and has earned the prestigious American Peony Society’s Gold Medal.
