Paeonia 'Armani'

Note:Fall shipping for all peony will be early-mid October.

One of the darkest, reddest peonies ever grown. Paeonia 'Armani' boasts satiny red blooms that are fully double, the intricately ruffled petals creating a tasteful, sophisticated look. The stylish blooms make incomparable cut flowers, and this long-lived, trouble-free plant is at home in most beds, borders, or foundation plantings. Easy and not picky about soil, just give Paeonia 'Armani' a sunny spot, keep the soil moist but well-drained, and enjoy decades of garden beauty.

If you are new to the joy of peonies, let us enumerate some of their merits. First, they are exceptionally carefree once established. One of the longest-lived perennials, a single plant can last for generations. Second, their phenol content makes them unappetizing to insects, rabbits, and even deer. Third, they offer 3 seasons of color: reddish spring foliage, bright late spring and early summer blooms; and bronze or purple fall tones. Fourth, they are equally suited for garden or vase, offering old-fashioned charm plus armloads of blooms. Very long-lived after cutting, the flowers can even be used as everlastings.

Peonies are a nice garden "bridge" plant, looking something like a perennial and something like a shrub. Set in front of large shrubs or trees, they make a big splash of color without occupying a lot of space. Traditional companions to peonies are spring-and summer-flowering bulbs, blue- and white-flowered perennials, flowering shrubs such as azaleas, and ornamental grasses. Bare root 3/5 Eye. Add gorgeous color to your landscape with Paeonia 'Armani'.
