This outstanding Peony bears large
globe-shaped fully double carmine-red flowers. The vivid color is striking against
the glossy green foliage of the plants. The blooms are not as fragrant as some of
the other varieties we grow and is often described as "mild". Karl
Rosenfield is considered to be one of the best Peony varieties for cut flowers, though we
must admit we have a hard time removing the beautiful blooms from the garden.
Peony 'Karl Rosenfield'
Plant in full sun and provide a rich well drained soil. Feed lightly
in early spring with a top dressing of compost and bone meal - over feeding can cause the
plants not to bloom. When planting Peony roots place the eyes 1 1/2 - 2 inches below
the soil level. Planting the roots to deeply can cause Peonies not to produce flowers.
Water new plants frequently to help them get off to strong start - more often than
not Peonies will not flower the first year - they will spend the first season establishing
themselves.
