Bowl Of Beauty Peony features bold lightly-scented semi-double rose cup-shaped flowers with buttery yellow eyes and creamy white anthers at the ends of the stems from late spring to early summer. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its compound leaves remain green in colour throughout the season. It takes at least two to three years for a young peony plant to get established, but once it has settled in, it will bloom reliably year after year. Peonies are fantastic cut flowers. They last for days in a vase and most varieties are fragrant.
