Rare and sought after! Another cameleon like Hillary and Julia Rose but on the orange side! A plant with spectacular colorations! Large semi- double to double flowers. The flowers are tricolor with the red, the yellow and the orange what gives them a brassy color when seen from afar. As Hillary and Julia Rose, the flowers gradually fade passing from the orange red at the opening to a cream-colored at the end of flowering. The flower center keeps its brassy hues until the end. This peony hold a multitude of flowers carried well above the green foliage on rigid stems. Robust plant. Start blooming at mid-season. Height: 90 cm. Only few divisions available.
