(P) to 3′. Affectionately known as ‘Molly the Witch’. This robust, herbaceous peony from the Caucasus makes a fine garden specimen. Our seed is from a plant growing next to Paeonia caucasica, so the cup-shaped blooms may be a shade of rosy pink instead of the usual creamy yellow. Flowers in May. Rare and very choice. Well-drained soil. Sun/partial shade. 3 & 6A
