Tried and true, `Edulis Superba’ has been a favorite for over 100 years with large, highly perfumed, rose-pink blossoms that bloom in high numbers against glossy dark green foliage. These prized blossoms are made up of layers and layers of frilled bright pink petals held atop arching green stems, making them excellent for cut flowers. Peonies are versatile and can be used as specimens or dwarf hedge and can also be used in borders or cutting gardens.
