A really great PURE DEEP RED Peony, we are proud to introduce. Result of a cross between Felix Crousse and President Roosevelt, this variety has been tested over a period of many years. It has proven to be a valuable plant for cut flowers and for general garden use. The large, fully double flowers are bright deep red, slightly deeper in color than Felix Crousse. The strong stems do not make any sidebuds. Blooming midseason.
