Family Paeoniaceae

'Philomele' is a highly fragrant, old-growth peony prized for its elegant anemone- or wreath-like flowers. The large, lavender-pink outer petals surround a dense center of light salmon to amber petaloids, providing a delicate and refined contrast. Its stems are sturdy, ideal for cutting, and its foliage remains beautiful all season long.
