Description

Paeonia lactiflora 'Coral Sunset'

Paeonia lactiflora 'Coral Sunset' is one of the most impressive and beloved peonies in the world. This award-winning cultivar is known for its exceptional flowers, robust growth, and spectacular color changes during bloom. It is not without reason that this special peony was awarded the prestigious APS Gold Medal, the highest distinction in the peony world.

The large, semi-double flowers can reach a diameter of no less than 20 centimeters and open from late May into June. Upon opening, the flowers display a warm mix of orange, coral pink, and salmon-colored hues, reminiscent of a beautiful sunset. As flowering progresses, the color gradually changes to soft salmon pink, cream yellow, and finally almost white. Thanks to this unique characteristic, Coral Sunset is also known as the 'magic ball peony'.

The flowers are borne on sturdy, dark stems that provide excellent support for the large flower heads. This makes Coral Sunset a reliable garden plant that blooms profusely year after year. Furthermore, its compact growth habit and beautiful, uniform dark green foliage make this cultivar highly suitable for borders, perennial beds, and exclusive cut flower production.

There are varying opinions regarding the fragrance of Coral Sunset. Many enthusiasts appreciate this cultivar for its subtle, pleasant scent, while others perceive it as virtually odorless. As a result, this peony is suitable for both fragrant gardens and situations where a strong floral scent is less desirable.

Discovered by Samuel Wissing in 1965 and later registered by Charles Klehm and Son Nursery, Coral Sunset has developed into one of the most prized peonies worldwide. With its spectacular play of color, large flowers, and reliable growth, it is an absolute eye-catcher in every garden.
