$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Paeonia ‘Lemon Chiffon’ is a semi-double to double yellow herbaceous peony. Its large, creamy lemon-yellow blooms emerge on stiff, upright stems and feature ruffled petals surrounding a center of golden-yellow stamens with orange filaments and prominent carpels tipped in raspberry‑pink. The lightly fragrant flowers appear from late spring into early summer, and often opening as a semi‑double shape before maturing into a full bomb-like form.

The foliage is glossy deep green, remaining lush and attractive throughout the season. Registered in the early 1980’s and a winner of the American Peony Society Best in Show award, this cultivar is fertile, producing viable seeds and useful in hybridization programs while offering lasting ornamental value in garden and vase alike.
