Paeonia lactiflora ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ is an heirloom herbaceous peony bearing large, fully double white blooms with a faint cream blush at the centre and a sweet, powdery fragrance. It flowers late spring to early summer and blooms more abundantly as the clump matures. Plant in full sun to part sun in fertile, well-drained soil, setting the eyes shallowly. Plants reach 24–36 inches tall and wide. Hardy in USDA zones 3–8. Cut back to the ground after frost each fall. It cuts well for the vase.
🍂 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.
