Peony Coral Sunset

Product details

Peony ‘Coral Sunset’ is a striking variety known for its breathtaking blend of warm coral and soft pink tones that gradually transition as the flowers bloom. These large, semi-double blooms, reaching up to 20 cm across, open in mid to late spring, exuding a light, pleasant fragrance. As the petals unfurl, the colour deepens from soft coral to a rich peach-pink, creating a stunning visual effect that resembles the soft hues of a summer sunset.. The sturdy stems of ‘Coral Sunset’ ensure that its large, vibrant blooms stay upright, even in challenging weather conditions, while the lush, green foliage provides a beautiful contrast to the warm flowers. As a fully hardy peony, it thrives in sunny or partially shaded spots with well-drained, fertile soil. This variety is ideal for adding both colour and fragrance to borders, cutting gardens, or flower arrangements.. We offer the highest quality bare root peony roots with 3–5 eyes, ensuring strong growth and abundant blooms. For the best results, plant in spring with the crown positioned 2.5–5 cm below the soil surface, and provide regular watering throughout the growing season. With proper care, ‘Coral Sunset’ will bloom beautifully for years, adding a radiant touch to your garden.. 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.
