Bunker Hill

Bunker Hill is known worldwide as one of the best cutflower Peonies.
A luscious double peony with rich, rose-pink blossoms. Each petal is beautifully outlined with a tracery of silver. Bunker Hill has been a favourite for more than 100 years (although new to us!)
It's a heavy bloomer with sturdy stems and dark, glossy foliage. Flowers mid-season.
Paeonies (Peonies) are the true garden Aristocrats - these incredible plants are always strong in demand. Their GIANT, luscious blooms, and lovely foliage make them a real head turner in any garden. Paeonies thrive in frosty, cold areas, and are incredibly drought tolerant during the Summer months - in fact, it's recommended not to water these during the Summer! Paeonies do best in places situated South of Taupo, however with care (for instance dumping ice on their roots during the growth period) can be grown in the North.
Peonies: Pure Elegance!
Paeonies (Peonies) are surprisingly easy to grow given the correct growing conditions.
Being planted in the correct location and given a little attention, most Peonies will grow profusely in the same spot for many many years, and will become a focal point of your gardens.
They thrive in frosty cold areas, and require some cold to flower successfully. Ideally requiring at least 3 frosts a year. They are also incredibly drought tolerant through the summer.
