Description:
This erect herbaceous perennial has divided leaves and bears bowl-shaped deep purplish-pink flowers up to 5 inches across with yellow stamens. 2 to 3 foot height and spread.

Notes:
Paeonia seed can develop a deep dormancy if allowed to dry. The Seed Collectors have kept their Paeonia seeds in cold moist storage to reduce the occurrence of deep dormancy.

Cultivation:
For maximum freshness, please keep seed refrigerated in its original packaging until it is time to plant. Sow fresh seed in autumn in containers in a shaded cold frame. Within six weeks a root should develop, to be followed by a leafy shoot in spring. Grow on in well-drained fertile soil in a location sheltered from wind in full sun or part shade. Spring sowings may be made in containers and stored in the refrigerator for two months, then moved to a sheltered position to develop the leafy shoot. Protect from heavy frost the first winter, but avoid wrapping the plant as this can promote mold.
