Long ago, a case of mistaken identity caused some unkind rumors about the Grover Cleveland Peony.
The real Grover Cleveland is a prolific bloomer that brings your whole garden to life with its vivid magenta-red hues.
To help clear its name, we've selected it as our 2026 Peony of the Year!
Grover Cleveland puts on a dazzling late mid-season display of rich ruby red blooms that deepen into the most intensely saturated magenta you have likely ever seen on a peony.
Once mature, this dramatic and generous plant produces 25 to 30 hardy stems carrying one main bloom and 3 to 4 side buds. The fragrance is worth noting: vibrant and full, as alive as the color itself.
Plant as soon as possible in fall which is the optimal time to plant peonies. If you need to wait, keep it in the peat moss and store it in a cool, dark, and dry place.

Fall is the optimal time to harvest and plant peony roots. Your freshly harvested root ships within 3–5 business days, ready for immediate planting.
Fresh fall roots give you healthy plants sooner. Unlike peony roots available at big-box stores that have been in packaging for months, our 3/5 eye peony roots are harvested in the Fall and delivered to you for immediate planting. Because peony roots are perishable outside of the ground, and to keep the freshest roots, availability may be limited post-harvest.
Because roots are perishable outside of the ground, returns must be initiated within 3 days of delivery. If return shipping is needed, please ship the return within 2 business days.
If there is any damage to your root upon arrival, email a photo to hello@adorationpeonygarden.com within 3 days and we’ll make it right.
