Product Description

Paeonia lactiflora ‘Dublin’ is a beautiful compact patio peony that offers the timeless charm of traditional peonies in a smaller, space-friendly form. This bushy herbaceous perennial grows to around 50cm tall, making it particularly well suited to containers, patio pots, terrace planting, and smaller garden borders.

In late spring and early summer, ‘Dublin’ produces striking single white flowers with bright golden-yellow centres. The saucer-shaped blooms sit above attractive, slightly glossy, deeply divided foliage, creating a fresh and elegant display that complements a wide range of garden styles.

The plant thrives in a variety of soils including chalk, clay, loam, and sandy soils, as long as the soil remains moist but well-drained. Best grown in full sun or partial shade, this hardy peony performs well in sheltered positions and is especially suited to decorative patio containers where its compact habit and bright blooms can be enjoyed up close.

Cut back stems in autumn once foliage has died back.
