Paeonia, 'Peony Heaven Double Peach' hybrid herbaceous peony

Notable characteristics: Our own new introduction, from an open pollinated seed planted out by David Furman in the early 2000s. Flowers are most often in the "flower with and flower" form with a thick row of stamens sandwiched between several layers of guard petals and a whorl of petals in the center. Full double blossoms are occasionally produced. Fat buds open over the course of several days. At first the flowers are a vibrant salmon peach, fading over the course of the bloom to soft pink. 

Dwarf grower blooms on stout stems.
