Shirley Temple Peony - Fresh Perennializing Bare Root Peonies

Product arrived fresh and hopefully will make great flowers

there is barely a root visible to plant and what is there in the way of roots are in terrible shape. there are just a shred a plant material to plant. I had to plant them in 1 gallon containers to keep them visible and help them thrive so the don't disintegrate into the ground.

Arrived healthy with enough buds, no mold or rotten roots (like some other vendors). Within a day peony had leaves poping out from the ground. Very happy

We received the bulbs in an large envelope. They we're partly crushed. They we're not wrapped correctly. Really, not wrapped at all. Just tossed in a large (overnight style) envelope. We should have returned them. But we didn't. We planted them in hopes that they would be ok. Well guess what.... They never grew. Uggg. Just horrible.

The Peony plant is not growing as fast as the other variety I purchased.

Root arrived very healthy. I had 4 or 5 eyes on the one I received. Very happy with it. Planted it immediately and can't wait to see it grow. May take a couple years I read to see flowers but such a healthy root. However, no planting instructions were included with it so I had to Google how to plant it.

At first the item looked like a tree branch it was a little odd figuring this was considered the bulbs. What appeared to look like a tree branch was soft with buds appearing to grown on what looks like a dark tree branch . I’ll plant it and see what happens. I was expecting round bulbs or similar somewhat like a root to plant.

I love Peonies so I am always looking for a great price which I received, and the quality was acceptable. Would repurchase for myself or as a gift. Given as a Birthday gift.
