Paeonia tenuifolia - Rubra Flora Plena
A rare fern‑leaf peony gem, ‘Rubra Plena’ features vivid, double red blooms that seem to float atop a cushion of finely divided, fern‑like foliage. This petite species flowers very early in spring—often long before most other peonies—and forms a low, compact mound, perfect for rock gardens or sunny borders. The blossoms have a rich, velvety sheen and a striking waxy gloss, paired with delicate foliage that adds intriguing texture to the garden. Its ferny foliage emerges early with a coppery-red tinge, and though the plant prefers well-drained soil and full sun, it can compactly fit into small spaces or edges.
- 1 growing root per pack, 2-3 eyes
- Double red blooms atop delicate fern-leaf foliage
