Peony 'Festiva Maxima'
Peony 'Festiva Maxima'
A highly fragrant, beautiful old fashioned favorite with big, lush pure white blooms romantically streaked with deep red in the center. I love this variety. 32” plants are more compact than ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ and each flower stem has 3-4 blooms on it that open in succession. Leaves tend to turn a lovely red to burgundy in the fall. A wonderful cut flower that lasts remarkably well in dry cold storage. This is a PREORDER for fall shipping. Your 3-5 eye roots will ship in late October or November, 2025.
These plants are 3-5 eye divisions. This variety will be dug from my own organically-maintained gardens in Northern Vermont. Shipping time for any plants sourced from my garden will be in the second half of October to the first half of November; peonies are best planted when dormant in fall or early winter so this timing is perfect.. You’ll receive a shipping notification (possibly in a separate thread from your order confirmation email due to the way my shipping system and website work) when your order ships.
