When ‘Lemon Chiffon’ opens in early summer, you’ll catch a soft, honeyed fragrance drifting across the garden before you even see the blooms — that’s how you know something special is happening.
This hybrid peony produces an unusual, richly saturated butter-yellow flower rarely found in the peony world. Blooms are extra-large, fully double, and carried on strong upright stems that don’t require staking. A prolific bloomer with exceptional color presence, it reaches about 32 inches at maturity and fits beautifully into cottage gardens, mixed perennial borders, or as a long-lived specimen planting.
Plant in full sun to light shade in well-draining soil. Peonies are drought-tolerant once established and reliably deer resistant. Bareroot divisions ship in fall with approximately 3 to 5 eyes, occasionally more — 5/8 divisions ship first when available, followed by 3/5.
This is the yellow peony you’ve been searching for: rare, fragrant, and built to return year after year.
🍂 Shipping & planting window
Peonies ship in fall (September–November) when fully dormant and bare root.
Fall planting gives roots a full season to establish in warm soil before winter. Cold stratification triggers strong, healthy spring growth and reliable bloom production. Spring-shipped peonies experience root damage during active growth, transplant shock during their bloom cycle, and often lose an entire growing season.
