'HIGHLIGHT' Peony (Paeonia x lactiflora 'highlight')

Touted as 'a highlight in the garden' by the American Peony Society, this aptly named specimen creates a scene thanks to deep burgundy-red, extra-large blooms that are well-supported by strong stems. Vigorous plants produce peony bushes of impeccable form and substance. 'Highlight' is an exquisite garden variety that doubles as a lush cut-flower. Late mid-season flowering.
