Description

Pink Hawaiian Coral Peony blossom was captured in June 10, 2014 at Oshawa Botanical Garden.

Paeonia is a genus of about 30 species of herbaceous and subshrubs from Europe to Asia and in Western North America. Hebaceous types die to the ground each year where the subshrub (tree peonies) have woody stems.
Genus name comes from the Greek name for Paeon, physician of the gods and reputed discoverer of the medicinal properties of plants in this genus.
‘Pink Hawaiian Coral’ is an herbaceous hybrid peony (P. ‘Charlie’s White’ x P. peregrina ‘Otto Froebel’). It is a shrubby perennial that, each year, will typically grow to 36” tall by mid-spring, bloom, display attractive foliage throughout the summer and early fall, and then die to the ground after frost. Features fragrant, round-petaled, double, coral pink blooms with yellow center stamens. Flowers appear in early season (usually mid-May in St. Louis). Green foliage is divided into oval to lance-shaped segments. Excellent cut flower. R. G. Klehm, 1981.
