A star represents a star, and neither can be an understudy. Peony 'Sarah Bernhardt' won’t have to stand back for anyone, not even the great French star of the stage and early movies. The floral star that bears her name may be not be nearly as famous, but she will certainly take centre stage. This delicate peony’s huge pale pink and puffy clusters of petals form a delightfully soft ball!You could fill up your garden cast more colourful peonies, but it will probably still be Paeonia 'Sarah Bernhardt' who gets the rave reviews, simply because of her class and elegance, not to mention her beautiful fragrance.
Peonies are tough, undemanding perennials that can bloom happily for a century or more with little care. Choose a sunny to lightly shaded spot to plant with good air circulation and plenty of room for them to grow. Because they like ample water, they do best in somewhat heavier clay-type soils and away from the roots of trees and shrubs.
When planting, water deeply and maintain even soil moisture until the ground freezes to help the plant develop as many feeder roots as possible its first fall. To protect the delicate roots the first winter, apply mulch. After the ground freezes, mound the newly planted area with 2-4 inches of soil or 5-8 inches of a fluffy, non-matting mulch such as straw, cornstalks, peat moss, or evergreen boughs – but not leaves.
Tip: Potted dormant perennials can be kept in a well-lit cool/cold area (i.e. garage, shed, even in a protected area outdoors) until ready for spring planting. Do not allow them to completely dry out.
