Kansas Red Peony 1 Live Flowering Perennial, 2 Gallon Pot – Paeonia lactiflora ‘Kansas’

Kansas Red Peony (Paeonia lactiflora ‘Kansas’) is a classic herbaceous perennial admired for its large, fully double, rich crimson-red flowers and attractive dark green foliage. Its lush blossoms create a striking display in late spring to early summer, making this variety a popular choice for perennial borders, cottage gardens, foundation plantings, and traditional flower gardens.

During its flowering season, Kansas Peony produces abundant, rounded blooms composed of numerous velvety red petals. The flowers stand above dense, deeply divided green foliage, providing a dramatic contrast of color and texture. This variety is also valued as a cut flower, with its large double blossoms suitable for floral arrangements and decorative displays.

Kansas Red Peony performs best in full sun and prefers fertile, well-drained soil with moderate moisture. It develops a clump-forming growth habit and returns each spring from its established root system. As a deciduous herbaceous perennial, its aboveground stems and foliage naturally die back during autumn and winter, with new growth emerging in spring.

Each order includes 1 live Kansas Red Peony supplied in a 2-gallon nursery container (G2).
