Research Progress Report, No. 43
Cultivar trials with herbaceous peonies were initiated
during the summer of 2001 to evaluate their potential as
field-grown cut flowers. The plants became well established,
and all but three cultivars bloomed in 2002. The bloom
times for all cultivars ranged from 30 June through the
first week of August (Holloway et al. 2003). The purpose
of this report is to present evaluations of the cultivar trials
through the 2003 growing season and identify possible
problems with flowering and plant establishment. Peonies
for the cut flower market are typically not harvested until
their fourth season, so this initial data only reflects the plant
establishment phase of field production
