Jan van Leeuwen, with its classic name that is not so easy to pronounce, is a wonderful single-flowering peony that smells delightful. White petals with their yellow center make it a very characteristic flower. A very reliable variety that may take some extra time to establish itself, but once it has done so, it provides fantastic flowers year after year. Sturdy stems ensure that it stands firm in rain and wind and is excellent as a cut flower.

When you have received your bare-rooted peony, we recommend that you plant it immediately. It is best to plant peonies in the fall, but it is also fine to do it during the spring and summer. If the ground is frozen, we recommend placing it in a slightly larger pot until it is to be planted in its final location. Then store it in a dry and cool place.
