Initial post 11 NOV 11 by Anemone
My 8 year old Mons. Jules Elie produced over 70 flowers this year. Not only are the flowers enormous(and in dire need of staking), but the whole plant is so large that no commercial peony cage will hold it. The flowers smell like a combination of roses and cinnamon, and glow with a faint silver cast. It blooms for several weeks in the spring, and unfortunately, seems to be more affected by botrytis than the rest of my peonies, marring some of the many blooms. It makes wonderful cut flowers, but does not look good in the landscape without some creative methods of support.
