Description:  A peerless blush peony of unrivaled beauty. The large, semi-double blooms display a sublime champagne-pink tinted lavender glow that radiates from the depths of the flower to the petal margins which approach white. On well grown specimens the production of central petaloids give the appearance of a loose to full double. Petals are neatly arranged, giving the impression of an exquisitely refined flower. Petals margins display a crepe paper ruffling, contributing to a frilly appearance. Flowers are presented well and held close to the foliage on sturdy and stalwart stems that do not require staking. Foliage is amongst the best in the peony world, clothing the stems with broad, deeply lobed leaflets that make for an incredibly handsome plant all season long. Superior and a must-have. Parent to highly desired traits in an exciting new generation of peonies.
