Etched Salmon Peony Root with 3-5 Eyes

Etched Salmon Peony, an acclaimed 1981 garden classic prized for its striking aesthetic. This early-midseason perennial produces tightly cupped buds that open into flawless, 5.5-to-6-inch double blossoms resembling luxurious English roses. The petals showcase a radiant salmon-coral hue, beautifully contrasted by faint silvery undertones and delicate golden margins along the center. Supported by robust, vertical stems reaching roughly 2.5 to 3 feet in height, this dependable variety stands tall without staking while emitting a gentle, clean aroma. Heavily sought after by floral designers for upscale weddings and cherished by home gardeners for its winter resilience, Etched Salmon creates an unforgettable spring focal point.

By checking out, you agree to our terms and designated shipping schedule. Once your order is confirmed, it is final, and the buyer assumes responsibility for proper root storage if the ground is frozen upon delivery. Mild weather windows across many regions allow for successful outdoor planting well into December. Because peonies benefit from winter chill, you can easily dig your planting holes ahead of time if freezing soil is a concern.

Bare Root Peony Growing Information & When to Expect Blooms

Planting Time: Plant your bare roots in the fall as soon as you receive them, before the ground freezes solid. This gives the root system time to establish over the winter.

Planting Depth: Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the roots. Position the root with the "eyes" (buds) pointing upward, 1 to 2 inches below the soil surface. Planting them too deep will prevent the plant from blooming.

Sun & Soil: Choose a location with full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily) and rich, well-draining soil. Avoid waterlogged areas to prevent rot.

When to Expect Blooms:

  • Year 1 (First Spring): The plant will focus its energy on root establishment and foliage growth. You may see a few green shoots or small leaves, but blooms are rare or may be very small.
  • Year 2: Foliage will become fuller and stronger, and you may get your first light bloom.
  • Years 3 and Beyond: The peony will reach maturity, producing its full-sized, abundant blossoms and peak performance.
