'CHRISTMAS VELVET' Peony (Paeonia x lactiflora 'christmas velvet')
Peony 'Christmas Velvet' is a fully-double, true-red hybrid that flowers early in the season. This velvety-textured peony produces 5" blossoms on tall 36"-48" stems successfully in a broad range of growing zones. This makes 'Christmas Velvet' a rising star in the cut-flower peony assortments and in the cottage garden alike. It has become very popular in the Southern Hemisphere where it's natural blooming time coincides with Christmas! (Anderson, 1992).

Peony roots are of good quality and size. Excellent customer service.
It came in November since I pre-dug holes in my garden for planting since the ground was starting to freeze I also covered the hole with a big bag of mulch. The root came and looked very healthy, lots of eyes, now I'll wait to see how it winters for a spring bloom.
