AUGUST

The Auguste Dessert peony is an exquisite herbaceous peony of French breeding, belonging to the group of milk-flowered peonies (Paeonia lactiflora). This mid-late variety is characterized by large flowers with a diameter of about 13-15 cm, which range from full double to semi-double and have a saucer or wheel shape. The petals are a rich bright pink with a pearl-silver sheen and an elegant silver-white border along the edges, giving the flower special expressiveness and elegance. In the center of the flower, a ring of bright yellow stamens is visible, and the aroma of the variety is weak or absent.

The peony bush Auguste Dessert reaches a height of 80-90 cm and is distinguished by sturdy stems and lush dark green foliage. The plant forms side buds, which ensures prolonged and abundant flowering. The peony prefers sunny locations and fertile, loose soils with a neutral reaction. To maintain good development and abundant flowering, regular fertilization throughout the season is recommended. Thanks to the sturdy bush and striking flowers, the variety is excellent for growing in the garden as well as for cutting.

This classic peony variety, bred in France in 1920, maintains its popularity due to its decorative qualities and reliability. Its bright, lace-like petals with a characteristic sheen and romantic coloring make Auguste Dessert a desirable ornament for any flower bed and an excellent choice for creating joyful garden compositions and bouquets.
