Cora Louise (Anderson, 1986) White with deep lavender flares, semi-double, slightly fragrant, midseason, 24" tall, intersectional. A striking contrast of lavender flares in this white bloom. It has the dark green, deeply cut foliage of the tree peony parent and pleasing bush shape. Some fragrance. Rare.
Huge semi-double to double white flowers. The contrast between the dark crimson color of the center of this peony and the pure white petals is magnificent. Beautiful fragrant flowers. Robust stems hold the flowers well above the foliage. Height 90 cm. Start blooming at mid-season. Very reliable plant with lot of flowers year after year. Cora Louise was the name of Mister Andersonâs grandmother. A true beauty in a pure state!
