Received September 27, 2020. Parentage: ‘Lemon Chiffon’ x ‘The Mackinac Grand’. Purchased as one of a number of seedlings donated by Nate Bremer in 2012 for the Wisconsin Peony Auction. First year bloomed 2016, first year propagated 2018. Early/Mid bloom period. SEMI-DOUBLE, watermelon-red with coral undertones, 1 bloom per stem, size 7 inches (18 cm). About 5 rows of petals, rounded, shallowly notched, lightly ruffled. Petals well spaced from each other giving the impression that they’re floating in air, giving visual volume to the flower but still retaining a light lacy feel. Pollen-bearing stamens, carpels present, fertile. Upright growth habit, height to 36 inches (92 cm).
