Description
The Duchesse de Nemours peony is a timeless beauty that adds a touch of classic elegance to any garden. This stunning peony is known for its large, full flowers in a pure, creamy white colour with a subtle fragrance that brightens up the garden. The flowers open in late spring to form a lush splendour ideal for making luxurious bouquets or simply for enjoying in the garden.
The Duchesse de Nemours needs about 2 to 3 years to become fully established and reach its full flowering potential. In the first few years, flowering may still be somewhat limited, but with patience and good care, this peony will grow into a strong, flowering plant that offers an abundance of beautiful flowers every year.
In winter, the Duchesse de Nemours peony loses its leaves, which is a normal dormancy process that helps the plant to flower vigorously again in spring. Plant the Duchesse de Nemours in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Make sure the rhizome is placed about 3-5 cm below the soil and keep at least 60 cm distance between plants to provide enough room for growth.
With proper care, the Peony Duchesse de Nemours will enrich your garden every spring with its elegant, creamy flowers and a touch of timeless charm.
