Charles Burgess Peony brings a refined elegance to the midseason garden with its Japanese-style flowers and rich, crimson coloring. Wide, dark burgundy petals surround a dramatic center of golden-edged stamens, creating striking contrast on every bloom. Though delicate in appearance, this herbaceous peony stands tall and unfazed through wind and rain, thanks to strong stems and a compact, shrubby habit. Its glossy green foliage remains attractive through summer before dying back in fall, returning each spring with even greater vigor.

Unique flower form with layered contrast: Charles Burgess offers a Japanese bloom style, combining large outer petals with a central ring of petaloid stamens edged in soft gold. The result is a layered, airy look that feels both structured and graceful—perfect for gardeners seeking something beyond the classic double form.

Strong stems, reliable structure: Despite their refined appearance, these flowers hold up beautifully in the landscape. Thick stems keep the blooms upright even in unpredictable spring weather, maintaining a tidy, upright form in beds, borders, and cutting gardens.

Midseason bloom with lasting presence: Blooming in mid-spring, Charles Burgess fills the seasonal gap between early and late peonies. After flowering, its neatly divided foliage stays fresh through summer and early fall, giving structure and greenery long after the blooms fade.

Cold hardy and deer resistant: Like all herbaceous peonies, Charles Burgess thrives in cooler climates and is built to last for decades. It’s also deer resistant, making it a reliable choice for rural and suburban gardens alike.
