Do Tell Peony

Do Tell Peony – 1 Bareroot with 3–5 Eyes

An Artistic Marvel of Contrast & Award-Winning Form

If you are looking for a peony that breaks the mold of the traditional "pink pom-pom," the Do Tell is your showstopper. A recipient of the American Peony Society Gold Medal and the Award of Landscape Merit, this variety is celebrated for its unique "Anemone" or "Japanese-style" form. It features a wide outer collar of soft, orchid-pink guard petals that perfectly frame a dense, frilly heart of rose, white, and golden-yellow staminodes.

Blooming in mid-season, Do Tell is as much a garden performer as it is a visual work of art. Its stems are thin but surprisingly wiry and strong, tinged with a beautiful red hue that adds to the plant's overall aesthetic. Because the blooms are lighter and more "airy" than dense double peonies, they stand up exceptionally well to spring wind and rain without drooping, making this one of the most reliable and low-maintenance choices for a perennial border.

Highlights:

• Exquisite Visual Contrast: Vivid rose-pink and yellow centers against soft orchid-pink petals.

• Award-Winning Pedigree: Highly honored for its exceptional garden habit and unique beauty.

• Strong, Red-Tinged Stems: Wiry and upright, providing excellent support for the blossoms.

• Mild, Pleasant Fragrance: A soft scent that invites closer inspection.

• Exceptional Heat Tolerance: Performs better in warmer climates than many other herbaceous varieties.

• Mature Height: 2.5 feet.

Do Tell is the perfect choice for collectors and gardeners who appreciate intricate detail and reliable, stand-alone beauty. Its compact size and tidy growth habit make it a versatile addition to any sunny spot in the garden.
