Paeonia lactiflora 'Candy Stripe'

The Paeonia lactiflora 'Candy Stripe' is undoubtedly one of the most striking and special peonies in the current assortment. This exclusive cultivar immediately attracts attention thanks to its unique flowers, which display a beautiful contrast between snow-white petals and striking red stripes, flames, and splashes. No two flowers are exactly the same, giving every bloom a surprising and unique character.

The large, richly filled double flowers appear in abundance during the flowering period and create a spectacular appearance in borders and flowerbeds. Thanks to the distinctive pattern, each flower looks as if it has been hand-painted. It is precisely this unique combination of white and red that makes 'Candy Stripe' a beloved choice for garden enthusiasts looking for something special.

In addition to its decorative value, this peony emits a mild, pleasant fragrance, making it not only visually appealing but also contributing to the atmosphere in the garden. The flowers are borne on long stems, making this cultivar particularly suitable as a cut flower. In bouquets, 'Candy Stripe' provides a luxurious and striking appearance that immediately catches the eye.

The plant grows relatively tall and has reasonably sturdy stems. Due to the enormous size and weight of the flowers, the plant may sometimes need some support in the garden during flowering. For cut flower cultivation, however, this is actually a great advantage, as the long flower stems are perfectly suited for use in exclusive floral arrangements.

With its unique color pattern, large double flowers, and excellent qualities as a cut flower, Paeonia lactiflora 'Candy Stripe' is one of the most special and sought-after peonies for both the garden and the vase.
