Characteristics
The „Paula Fay” peony is a lovely herbaceous perennial that blooms in late spring to early summer with enormous, fragrant, and spectacular flowers. It was named after Paula Fay, a well-known peony grower who popularized the variety in the mid-twentieth century.
Paula Fay peony blooms are 55 cm tall and have a beautiful pink color with deeper pink highlights. They are further distinguished by their ruffled petals and vivid yellow stamens, which contrast attractively with the pink petals.
Origin Paula Fay Peony
The „Paula Fay” peony was named after his wife’s cousin, Paula Fay, by American peony breeder William Krekler in the mid-20th century. Krekler was situated in Hooper, Nebraska, and worked for almost 40 years on breeding new peony varieties, introducing several attractive and popular cultivars. One of his most successful designs, the Paula Fay peony, has become a favorite among peony fans due to its gorgeous blossoms and consistent performance.

Here are some care recommendations for a peony bouquet: When you receive the peonies bouquet, carefully remove it from its packaging. Under running water, cut the flower stems diagonally at a 45-degree angle with clean and sharp scissors. This will prevent air bubbles from forming in the stems, which can obstruct water uptake. To prevent bacterial growth in the vase, remove any leaves or foliage that are below the water line. Choose a vase that is clean and large enough to hold the peonies. Fill it with clean, fresh water. If the bouquet includes flower food, mix it into the water according to the package directions. If you don't have flower food, you can add a pinch of sugar to the water to help keep the water clean and the flowers nourished. Change the water every two days and recut the stems at a 45-degree angle to assist the flowers in absorbing water. You can help ensure that your peonies bouquet stays fresh and beautiful for as long as possible by following these steps.prder paula fay peony in bulk
