Notes: Une pivoine qui est vraiment jaune! Gagnante de la médaille d'or de l'American Peony Society en 1996.
Si je pouvais planter seulement une pivoine jaune, cette merveille serait mon choix. Elle est moins haute que la moyenne des pivoines. Vigoureuse. Florifère. Parce que je ne semble pas être capable de produire suffisamment de cette pivoine pour répondre à la demande, certains plants livrés cet automne proviendront de mon champ, alors que d'autres proviendront de la pépinière de Don Hollingsworth (le pépiniériste qui a introduit cette plante en 1984).
