Soft, luminous, and effortlessly elegant, Lemon Chiffon peony produces large, semi-double blooms in a delicate buttery-yellow—one of the rarest shades in peonies. Each flower opens with a gentle glow and a subtle fragrance, creating a refined focal point in late spring gardens. Strong, upright stems hold the blooms beautifully without flopping, making it an excellent choice for cutting gardens and landscape plantings alike.
This reliable perennial returns year after year with lush, deep green foliage that stays attractive well beyond bloom time. Lemon Chiffon pairs beautifully with pastels, whites, and soft pinks for a romantic garden palette.
