Description
Paeonia 'Prairie Charm' is a peony with a beautifully fresh complexion, producing fragrant, semi-double flowers in a soft primrose yellow that feels both refined and full of quiet cheer. The ruffled, toothed petals are touched at the base with red flares, a little flourish of drama that gives Paeonia 'Prairie Charm' its distinctive character without disturbing its gentle elegance. Blooming in late spring and early summer, it brings warmth and light to the border just as the garden is finding its stride. With strong stems and deep green leaves, Paeonia 'Prairie Charm' has a poised, upright habit that keeps the display looking composed.
Plant Paeonia 'Prairie Charm' in fertile, well-drained soil, in sun or light shade, where its luminous flowers can be enjoyed at close range. Its primrose tones are wonderful with violet salvias, blue geraniums, creamy roses and silver foliage, while the red flares add a subtle link to richer, moodier planting nearby. The scented blooms are also excellent for cutting, bringing a soft, buttery glow indoors without looking remotely overdone. Long-lived, graceful and reassuringly sturdy, Paeonia 'Prairie Charm' is a charming choice for gardeners who like their peonies elegant, fragrant and just a touch unexpected.

Useful information
-
Soak the Paeonia 'Prairie Charm' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Peony" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
