Origin of Serenity

Origin of Serenity.  Bremer. 2019. Advanced generation herbaceous hybrid. Parentage: Manitowoc Maiden x Pastelegance. Large double white flowers with champagne-pink petal bases, creating an inner glow. Good bud covers allow flowers to open without early water damage. The double flowers have ruffled and notched petals. Flowers open in organized petal layers, often with a small ball of petals at the center, which encloses the anthers and stigmas. Stigmas are often abortive, but may be intact on some flowers. Stigmas are light pink-green and are not visible without assistance. Incomplete, nearly unidentifiable cream disc. Foliage is deep green and wide. Leaves are widely spaced on sturdy stems. Plants lean when in flower, but mechanical support is not needed for good flower presentation here in Wisconsin. A healthy growing hybrid that shows average increase. Excellent in a clump and one of the most admired selections among our large collection of herbaceous peonies.  One of the very finest recently introduced cultivars. Limited numbers available and this is the first offering in the United States.  Premium divisions ship late September to mid October.
