The peony 'Coral Sunset' is an exceptionally elegant and graceful perennial. Early in the year, it enriches the garden with its beautiful, fragrant, large blooms. Its initial coral pink color gradually transforms into a delicate salmon hue as the flowering period progresses, before finally turning into a wonderful cream towards the end of its bloom. Its lush, dark green foliage provides a unique contrast to this spectacular display of color. 'Coral Sunset' is incredibly easy to care for and undemanding. Once established in your garden, you will be able to enjoy its beauty for decades.

Planting peonies
The ideal time to plant peonies is either in early spring or autumn, roughly between September and the end of November. The peonies are delivered as young plants in 2-liter pots. They require a sunny location in the garden. Important: Peonies must not be planted too deep or too shallow, as they are very sensitive to this.
Caring for peonies
Peonies are very easy to care for and require little maintenance after planting. Regular watering is necessary during dry periods, but waterlogging should be avoided at all costs. Fertilizing once a year with horn meal or compost is recommended. In late autumn, after the peony leaves have withered, the above-ground shoots should be cut back to about 10–15 cm.
Harvesting peonies
The ideal time to harvest is when the buds slowly begin to open. The petals should still be tightly closed. Using sharp garden shears or a knife, cut the stems at an angle and immediately place them in lukewarm water.
