(Garden Peony) For many Garden Peonies have a certain nostalgia about them, for me they remind me of my childhood. ‘Duchess de Nemours’ features large, fragrant, double creamy white blooms that bloom late spring. ‘Duchess de Nemours’ stands 34 inches tall and spreads up to 24 inches wide creating an upright mounding habit. Hardy in zones 3-8, garden peonies like to be grown in full sun to part shade locations. Peonies like to be grown in fertile soil and are drought tolerant once they get established. Plant in mass as a specimen or create a garden border, these easy to grow perennials are great for cuttings. Snip a few branches and enjoy the fragrant scent in a vase on your kitchen table. If deer and rabbit pose a problem in your garden, not worries, ‘Duchess de Nemours’ is deer and rabbit resistant!
