Kansas Peony

Kansas Peony – 1 Bareroot with 3–5 Eyes

The Definitive Standard for Non-Fading Red Perfection

If you are looking for the perfect red peony, look no further than the Kansas. A legendary winner of the American Peony Society Gold Medal, this variety is widely considered the best double red ever introduced. While many red peonies can take on a brownish tint or fade in the afternoon sun, Kansas stays true, boasting massive, vibrant watermelon-red to bright crimson blossoms that refuse to lose their luster.

Blooming in the mid-season, Kansas is a powerhouse in the garden. It is famous for its exceptionally strong, woody stems that hold the heavy, petal-packed blooms upright without the need for staking. The flowers are large and "full-double," featuring layers of silken petals with a slight silver sheen on the edges, providing a sense of depth and movement that makes them glow in the landscape.

Highlights:

• Vibrant, Non-Fading Color: A bright, clean red that stays vivid from bud to drop.

• Gold Medal Excellence: Honored for its superior growth habit and floral beauty.

• Sturdy, Upright Stems: One of the most "wind-proof" and "rain-proof" double peonies available.

• Excellent Cut Flower: Long-lasting in a vase with a mild, pleasant fragrance.

• Vigorous Grower: Quickly establishes itself into a lush, dark green shrub-like mound.

• Mature Height: 3 feet.
