Peony Cora Louise

Product details

Peony ‘Cora Louise’ is a captivating Itoh hybrid variety that offers an exceptional display of semi-double blooms in a soft, creamy white with striking lavender-pink flares radiating from the centre. Each flower features a luminous golden-yellow cluster of stamens, creating a bold yet elegant contrast. Blooming from late spring to early summer, this standout peony is a beautiful choice for borders, mixed beds, or as a feature plant in your garden.. Renowned for its vigorous growth and floriferous nature, ‘Cora Louise’ combines the best traits of herbaceous and tree peonies. Its strong, sturdy stems support its large blooms without the need for staking, while its finely divided, deep green foliage adds ornamental value throughout the season. This low-maintenance plant thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and enjoys full sun or partial shade.. We supply the highest quality bare root peony roots with 3–5 eyes, ensuring healthy establishment and abundant flowering. For optimal results, plant in spring with the crown positioned 2.5–5 cm below the soil surface and water regularly during the growing season. With proper care, ‘Cora Louise’ will provide stunning blooms year after year.. Newly planted peonies seldom make a first-class show in their first season, instead reaching the top of their form in their second or third year.. Learn more about how to grow peonies.
