Product description

Mons. Jules Elie- Timeless Double Light Pink Blossoms are grown for arrangements. French peonies are noteworthy for thier appeal through the ages and Mons. Jules Elie is no exception. The stems are not the strongest so they will need to be staked once they start to open, hence why they are grown for cut flowers. The foliage is beautiful as well.

3-5 Eye Rootstock - We try to only provide the largest rootstock for peonies for stronger roots that lead to better blooms.  2-3 eye roostock is the most common size offered and occassionally it is what we have to use, but 3-5 eyes per root is our goal. Eyes are the buds of the leaves and stems that will grow this season for you. 

Shipping - See options to select from - All peonies are packed in spagnum moss or other media to ensure they make it to your garden in pristine condition. We do adjust for shipping charges as every year is slighly different in weights and sizes. 

Planting Care - Bare roots should be kept cool and in the dark until ready to plant.  Peonies do not like to be planted deep and eyes should be kept no deeper than 1" below the soil surface. When possible, it is a great idea to mound your peonies above your existing garden grade to accommodate mulch.  Plant no deeper than 1-2". The roots will quickly develop and anchor into the ground. 

  • Full Sun or Partial Sun is best
  • Prefers loamy soil, can be planted in sandy or clay soils with compost amendments
  • Give them room to grow as they don't like to be moved once established
  • Some blooms may occur first year when planting in the spring, fall planted peonies will yield spring blooms most of the time
