Description
Spring Sun, a full double flower that opens clear bright yellow. The pigments are even and clean throughout the bloom. The color is quite durable especially when cut and opened indoors. The petals eventually fade in the sun and transition from pale yellow to nearly cream when petals drop. Generously furnished with petals, it unfurls to an exhibition quality flower of formal form and heavy substance.
This peony has an excellent plant habit. It is vigorous and the increase is above average, growing a large clump within a few years of planting. The clump abounds with flowering stems, offering exceptional color on a substantial, medium height bush. The blooms are borne close to the foliage imparting a well-proportioned, pleasing presentation. The stiff stem holds the flower upright but may sag with rain in the opened flower. The presentation benefits by light support. The bush is generously covered with foliage, the color a rich, dark green.
