Paeonia lactiflora - Henry Bockstoce
Bold, elegant, and truly magnificent, ‘Henry Bockstoce’ is renowned as one of the finest red double peonies. It sports enormous, fully double, cardinal‑red blooms—measuring up to an impressive 20 cm (8 inches) in diameter—with a rose‑like center and thick, glossy petals that exude refinement and power. These richly fragrant flowers are borne mid‑season on stout, upright stems that approach 100 cm (40 inches) in height, making them spectacular both in the border and as long‑lasting cut blooms. The plant forms a lush, bushy mound of glossy, dark green foliage that remains attractive through summer and fall. Alluring, garden‑worthy, and cut‑flower perfect, ‘Henry Bockstoce’ is a late‑blooming standout that delivers drama and longevity.
