Paeonia 'Early Scout'

Fernleaf Peony

'Early Scout' Fernleaf Peony is one of the earliest Peonies in the garden.  The foliage is finely dissected ("fern-like') and is topped by single deep red blossoms in May.  The vivid red color is set off by the bright yellow stamens and Paeonia 'Early Scout' makes an excellent addition to flower arrangements.  'Early Scout' won a gold medal from the American Peony Society.
