There’s something about Jan Van Leeuwen that makes you curious to learn more. Is it even a peony? Is it a daisy masquerading as a peony?
Pure white satin petals open wide into a luminous cup, surrounding a densely mounded center of brilliant golden stamens. This is a Japanese form peony, with guard petals framing a dramatically lit center on sturdy stems that hold them high. Jan brings a fragrance that is notably luxurious and clean.
Jan blooms late mid-season, closing out this collection with unhurried grace.
