Paeonia mascula subsp. arietina aff. 'Northern Glory' (ex: Jonthan Lehrer's grandmother) – This is a beautiful early-bloomer with bowls of deep dark red peony flowers with a showy golden central boss on strong stems over reddish purple foliage. The emerging stems are deep red and very noticeable in the early spring garden especially when planted with Lysimachia punctata 'Alexander' with its pink, cream and green tightly wrapped balls of new foliage just above the crowns and/or with crocus flowers... but I digress. Leaves soon turn green but become infused with reddish purple again in autumn, the Queen of the Garden, indeed! Site P. mascula in full sun planted in fertile draining soil. Division is from our mother plant. Clumping. Tuber is sent bare root. Fall only.
