Paeonia lactiflora - Coral Sunset
This enchanting herbaceous peony opens with large, semi-double blooms in a fiery coral hue that gracefully fade through soft apricot, yellow-cream, and finally to a delicate ivory—reminiscent of a glowing sunset. The flowers are lightly fragrant and beautifully ruffled, perched on sturdy, upright stems that make them ideal for striking cut-flower displays. The plant forms a bushy mound of glossy, dark green divided foliage that persists well into summer, offering lasting garden appeal. An early- to mid-season bloomer known for its vigor, ‘Coral Sunset’ has earned accolades including an APS Gold Medal and the Award of Landscape Merit.
