Mother's Choice Peony

Paeonia ‘Mother’s Choice’, an herbaceous peony, produces large, double, fragrant blush white flowers on a plant up to 3’ tall. The elegant petal formation helped this variety win a Gold Medal from the American Peony Society in 1993. Full sun in moderately fertile soils provides this plant the growing environment it needs to survive and thrive for decades if not centuries (an abandoned family cemetery in eastern Missouri dating to the 1830’s featured peonies around some of the oldest headstones – several of whom fought in the Revolutionary War).
