Paeonia ‘Purple Spider’

Description

Fancy and frilly Peony ‘Purple Spider’ is the perfect example of just how fantastic peonies are. Not only for their large and long-lasting flowers, rich colouring and intricate details, but their hardiness, shade tolerance and reliability too. These sugary sweet ruffled double blooms will bring life and high-impact intense colour to any dull planting space with hardly any fuss at all. Bursting into action from late spring, this dashing starlet is eager to get going and sets the bar high for summer!

Peonies like ‘Purple Spider’ are perfect for growing in gardens of all sizes, and especially useful for small gardens or outside spaces which lack sunlight. Even in shade you can get a heart display of big, impressive blooms, and they’re just as happy in a large container as they are in borders. If you have a woodland planting scheme, a peony will be the perfect asset for late spring colour. What’s more, these cut-flower classics have an outstanding vase life too, opening slowly from tight rounded buds to reveal an amazing ruffled pink pompom.
