This beautiful peony is called Karl Rosenfield. Normally this peony is quite a deep red, but as the bloom ages it takes on a deep rose hue and the petals spread out and open the flower up.
It’s quite lovely and it’s quite large! This peony is approximately five to six inches in diameter. Now imagine a clump of them with 30 to 50 blooms! Spectacular!
Happy Canada Day!
