Product Description
Paeonia lactiflora ‘Kiev’ is a charming compact patio peony that offers all the beauty of traditional peonies in a smaller, more manageable size. This upright, bushy herbaceous perennial produces attractive, finely divided foliage that emerges with subtle red tones in spring before developing into rich dark green leaves that provide excellent structure throughout the growing season.
In late spring and early summer, the plant produces eye-catching single deep rose-pink flowers with a bright cluster of golden-yellow stamens at the centre. These saucer-shaped blooms are lightly spiced in fragrance and stand proudly on strong stems above the foliage, making them ideal for adding colour to patio containers, terrace planting, or small garden borders.
This patio peony variety thrives in a wide range of soils including chalk, clay, loam, and sandy soils, provided they are moist but well-drained. Best grown in full sun or partial shade, ‘Kiev’ performs particularly well in sheltered positions and makes an excellent choice for decorative pots where its compact growth habit can be fully appreciated.

Care Tips
Plant your Kiev patio peony in fertile, well-drained compost or garden soil with the crown positioned just below the surface. Water regularly during dry periods, particularly when grown in containers. Apply a balanced fertiliser in spring to support healthy growth and flowering, and cut back stems in autumn after the foliage dies back.

Compact, colourful, and easy to grow, Paeonia ‘Kiev’ Patio Peony is an excellent choice for brightening patios, balconies, and garden borders. Its vibrant flowers and manageable size also make it a thoughtful gift for gardeners looking to add classic peony beauty to smaller spaces.
