The Scarlet O'Hara Peony, Paeonia 'Scarlet O'Hara', is an early bloomer with large, fiery red single flowers and rich green foliage. With its tall, vigorous plant habit, it becomes a spirited red for the garden. Scarlet O'Hara Peony's vigorous growth and deep roots are the secret to this heat-tolerant Peony's success in climates where winter is short and summer very long! As a bonus, it makes a superior cut flower! All of our peonies are widely adaptable to most soils across the country. They bloom in mid to late spring and have very large, colorful blooms that stand out in the spring garden. Peonies can handle dry to moist sites, and do best in full sun but can handle some light shade. Often thought of as a plant used on the farm or out in the country, they bring a little bit of that country feeling to your garden. It is not uncommon to see peonies planted along the driveway or lane in a mass. Peonies are simple to grow and can be utilized in many ways, including mass plantings, specimens, or hedges. Southerners should seek out our early bloomers and provide afternoon shade. Light your garden up with this red flowering plant!
