Blondin

Peony of the 'Blond' (Blonde Vision) variety is a interspecific hybrid developed in the USA in 2010 by breeder Hollingsworth. This herbaceous plant with tetraploid chromosome set reaches a height of approximately 75-90 cm. Peony bushes require support and prefer sunny locations for planting, corresponding to USDA zones 4-8. Leaves are light green with medium lobes, and the flower scent is weak and floral.

The flowers of the 'Blond' peony are large — diameter reaches 15-16 cm. They are densely double, rose-shaped with neatly folded wavy petals, creating a sculptural flower effect. Coloration varies from delicate cream and buttery to light yellow with soft pink-red highlights and illumination in the center. At the beginning of flowering, petals have a delicate pink tint at the edges and an orange glow inside, which changes to pure pastel yellow upon full bloom. Some flowers contain a small number of stamens and pistils, adding to their decorative appeal.

'Blond' peony blooms in early-to-mid season, delighting with abundant and prolonged flowering. Its sturdy stems support large double flowers, making this variety attractive for garden cultivation and decorative compositions. Thanks to its refined coloration and flower shape, this peony is a true ornament for any flowerbed.
