What a breathtaking appearance this Peony Lactiflora Shirley Temple, delivered on rhizome, with its white petals finished with a pink edge here and there. This impressive flower grows to a height of approximately 80 to 90 cm and blooms in May and June, it likes full sun and partial shade.

This sensual lady is of course the highlight in your living room as a cut flower together with, for example, her sister Paeonia Lactiflora Bowl of Beauty.

Let your garden be surprised with this overwhelming Shirley Temple peony, because she is really the optimal eye-catcher for any garden. If you go for romance, choose this expressive flower that is beautifull. 

Peonies like moist and nutrient-rich soil and a spot in full sun. Do not plant the peony rhizomes too deeply, as this can cause the plant to bloom poorly. The nose of the plant only needs to be 1-2 centimeters underground. You can plant peonies in the fall or spring, because peonies are winter hardy. Keep in mind that peonies do not produce many flowers in the first year. If the rhizomes are planted in the autumn, they have more time to make extra roots and they therefore produce more flowers. They produce good flowers in the second year. The peony plants can be dug up after 6 to 10 years. You can then split the plants and replant them in another place.
