Peony Peter Brand is a true aristocrat among peonies, impressing with its deep color and noble form. Its luxurious, densely double flowers in a rich burgundy shade with a slight wine or purple tinge look extremely elegant, especially in soft sunlight. When in full bloom, the flower takes on a velvety appearance, adding visual depth and luxury.

This variety is ideal for creating exquisite floral arrangements in the garden and adds dramatic accents to flower beds and mixed borders. Peter Brand also looks great as a cut flower — its blooms retain their shape and fragrance for a long time in a vase, decorating any interior.

The bush is sturdy and upright, with dark green decorative foliage that remains attractive until autumn. The plant tolerates weather fluctuations well, and its strong stems can support large flower heads without staking.

Will it flower in the first year?

Peonies take time to settle. A 3–5 eye root builds a strong plant in its first year and usually flowers from the 2nd or 3rd year, then every year for decades. If your peony has not grown or flowered although you followed our planting instructions, our 100% flowering guarantee applies: we replace it or refund you.

How to Plant?

Guide and tips for planting peony roots

Choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining soil.
Dig a hole that is 2-3 times wider than the peony 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 root in the hole with the eyes (small buds) facing up. For herbaceous and Itoh peonies, the eyes should be 2–5 centimeters below the soil surface; plant tree peonies at the depth they grew in the nursery.
Fill the hole with soil and gently firm the soil around the 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.
