The Double Peony 'Miranda' is a striking herbaceous perennial known for its lush, double blooms that exude a classic charm. The flowers are large, measuring about 6-8 inches in diameter, and are composed of numerous soft pink petals that create a full, rounded shape. These petals often have subtle, deeper pink veining that adds depth and texture to the flower. The blooms are fragrant, emitting a sweet, delicate scent that attracts pollinators. The foliage is a rich green, with deeply lobed leaves that provide a beautiful backdrop to the stunning flowers.

  • Size: Typically grows to a height of 2-3 feet and spreads to about 2-3 feet wide.
  • Sunlight: Prefers full sun to partial shade. At least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily is ideal for optimal blooming.
  • Soil: Thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Soil should be rich in organic matter.
  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Water deeply but avoid waterlogging.
  • Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring when new growth appears. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to poor flower production.
  • Pruning: Remove spent blooms to encourage more flowers. Cut back the foliage to the ground in late fall after it has died back naturally.
  • Pests and Diseases: Generally resistant to pests, but watch out for common peony issues like botrytis blight. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases.
  • Support: Large blooms may require staking or a peony ring to support the heavy flowers and prevent them from drooping.
