Monsieur Jules Elie Peony

A timeless peony with luxurious fragrance

Product Description

Extra-large, fully double blush-pink blooms
Exceptionally fragrant flowers
Classic heirloom variety introduced in 1888
Excellent cut flower with strong, upright stems
Long-lived, low-maintenance perennial

Monsieur Jules Elie Peony is a beloved garden classic, treasured for its enormous, ruffled blooms and rich, old-fashioned fragrance. The soft blush-pink flowers open in late spring, revealing layers of delicately cupped petals that create a lush, romantic display in the garden.

Ideal for perennial borders and cutting gardens, this heirloom peony produces sturdy stems that hold its showy flowers beautifully in arrangements. Deep green foliage adds seasonal interest even after flowering, making it a reliable landscape performer year after year. Grows 30–36 in. tall. Plant in full sun to partial shade. Deer tend to avoid.
