A Symphony of Color and Form
The 'Singing in the Rain' peony delivers a spectacular display that evolves throughout its blooming period:
- Large semi-double flowers measuring up to 6 inches in diameter create dramatic focal points in garden designs
- Fascinating color transition from pinkish buds to apricot-orange, finally maturing to a clear, deep yellow
- Multiple blooms per stem create a two-tone effect as flowers open at different times
- Pleasant fragrance adds sensory appeal to cutting gardens and landscape installations
- Dark green, tree peony-like foliage remains attractive throughout the growing season
- Impressive 36-40 inch height and spread forms a perfectly symmetrical, mound-shaped shrub
This exceptional variety maintains its upright blooms even after heavy rainfall, making it ideal for high-visibility locations in commercial and residential landscapes.
Growing Success with Minimal Maintenance
'Singing in the Rain' thrives in USDA zones 3-9, adapting beautifully to diverse climate conditions across North America. Plant in rich, well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade locations for optimal performance. This peony blooms in late spring to early summer, with a prolonged flowering period thanks to its multiple side buds.
