Description

'Sarah Bernhardt' Peony has large double flowers in fresh, pastel pink. This longtime favorite blooms dependably year after year and presents a healthy amount of emerald green foliage to add interest to the garden throughout the season. Also known for its fragrance, 'Sarah Bernhardt' makes a great cut flower. Like all peonies, this one is deer resistant, cold hardy and extremely long-lived. (Paeonia lactiflora)

Care

Peonies like a sunny well-drained location planted 2-4' apart with the eyes no more than 2" below soil level. As far as fertilization, fertilizer or compost in spring. Peonies take time to establish, often 3 years before they start blooming, but the wait is so worth it. Let them grow undisturbed and they will bring joy to you and your loved ones through the decades. Best grown in zones 3-8.

Growth Habit

It may need some support to keep the 36" flower stems standing tall when in full bloom. It's a mid-season peony, meaning it blooms during the middle part of the peony season

Toxicity

Toxic to dogs and cats. Do not ingest. This is an easy peony to grow even in heavy clay soils and is rarely bothered by deer.
