Paeonia lactiflora 'Longlife Red'
Paeonia 'Longlife Red' is a classic herbaceous Peony valued for its large, blousy red blooms that appear from late spring into early summer.

Forming a robust clump of attractive green foliage, ‘Longlife Red’ provides structure throughout the growing season and returns reliably year after year. Easy to grow once established, it thrives in sunny or lightly shaded positions and suits cottage gardens, mixed borders, or traditional planting schemes.
