Marie Jo

Marie Jo is the peony lover's tulip, its warm butter yellow petals stack in layer upon generous layer, creating a bloom so full and lush it seems almost too beautiful to be real. Flowering in April to June, it fills borders and pots with rich, generous colour that lingers for weeks. Fragrant and elegant, it brings a cottage garden softness to any planting scheme. On still mornings in April to June, its fragrance carries across the garden, an invisible quality that makes this variety something to seek out and remember. As a cut flower it is exceptional, strong stems hold the bloom upright for well over a week, making it as valuable to the vase as it is to the border. Every bulb is hand selected from BLOM's Dutch growers, chosen for size, firmness and the promise of the bloom to come. A small act of trust with a beautiful, reliable reward.
