Paeonia lactiflora ‘Duchesse De Nemours’

(1856) The flowering of this fairly low plant (80cm) begins in late May. The petals of this creamy-white variety protrude beyond the filled heart. Because the plant already has leaves from below, an attractive round plant structure is created.

After years of experience in the Netherlands, our grower has put together a TOP assortment of the most beautiful and successful peonies.

They grow in all types of soil:
In clay, growth is problem-free, do not fertilize too much and ensure good drainage.
In sand, the plants remain somewhat smaller, sufficient fertilization keeps the plant at its best.
In peat soil, growth is generally good, however, the plants will need to be replanted or replaced slightly earlier.

Place peonies in a sunny spot, plant them (immediately after arrival) so shallowly that only a few cm of soil covers the buds, first press the soil down.
We supply loose root tubers, each plant has grown for 4-5 years, so the chance of quick flowering is high! Some varieties grow into their intended, (double) form as they get older. Colors can vary slightly from year to year and depend on the preceding winter cold. Because we have to wait until the plants have died off naturally, the root tubers are available EARLIEST FROM OCTOBER.
