A peony 'The size of a dinner plate' would make a most extraordinary decoration for a bouquet and a green space. Even the name mentioned above says it all. In English, the fluffy peony sounds like Dinner Plate.

Looks and scent
If you look closely at the flowering peony, its buds resemble a densely packed airy dessert plate. The outermost petals are oval and wide, forming a bowl. The petals inside such a plate are small, wavy, resembling whipped cream. The fragrance of such a floral dessert is delicate, faintly audible.

Dinner Plate is herbaceous and the large buds are set on broad, dark green stems with a very dense leaf arrangement. The leaves are richly coloured, glossy and uniquely shaped. The shrub retains its decorative power even when it changes from green to burgundy-pink in spring and summer.

Height: up to 90 cm

Flowering time: June

Bud shape: hemispherical, roseate

Diameter of the inflorescence: 20 cm

How to Plant?

Guide and tips for planting peony plants and bulbs

Choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining soil.
Dig a hole that is 2-3 times wider than the diameter of the peony bulb or root and deep enough to accommodate it comfortably.
Mix some compost or other organic matter into the soil at the bottom of the hole.
Place the peony bulb or root in the hole with the "eyes" (small buds) facing up and the crown (thickened stem base) no more than 1-2 inches below the soil surface.
Fill the hole with soil and gently firm the soil around the bulb or root.
Water the soil until it is evenly moist.
Cover the area with a layer of mulch to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Water the plant regularly, making sure not to let the soil dry out completely.
As the plant grows, provide support to the stem to prevent it from bending or breaking.
After the flowers have faded, cut the stem off at the base and continue to care for the plant by watering it regularly and providing it with full sun or partial shade.
