Paeonia ‘Red Sarah Bernhardt’ – 3 litre pot

Paeonia ‘Red Sarah Bernhardt’ is a magnificent plant that grows up to 90cm tall. Its deep green foliage is divided into lance-shaped leaflets, which provide a striking backdrop for the plant’s show-stopping flowers. These fragrant blooms consist of dark pinkish-purple petals that are delicately tinged with red. The blooms appear in late spring and continue to enchant viewers with their beauty well into early summer. The ‘Red Sarah Bernhardt’ is an excellent choice for adding a burst of vibrant colour and fragrance to your garden.

Care instructions:
– For best results, plant pot-grown Peonies in the spring when the soil is no longer frozen. Peonies prefer full sun exposure, except in the South and the warmest parts of the West, where providing afternoon shade is appreciated as it helps the flowers last longer on the plant.
– Keeping the plants in a container is possible; use large and deep containers to prevent root freezing during winter. Ensure the containers have drainage holes in the bottom, as planting in small containers can lead to root-bound plants. To keep the plants looking fresh, divide the clumps every 2 to 3 years.
– Adequate watering is essential after planting, and the soil should be kept consistently moist to ensure the plant establishes well.
– To maintain the plant’s appearance, remove faded peony flowers by cutting the stem to a strong leaf without leaving it sticking out of the foliage.
– In the autumn, cut the foliage to the ground to prevent overwintering diseases.
