Paeonia lactifolia ‘Rome’ is a late-blooming marvel, tailored for patio pots and small-space gardens with its petite stature of just 24 inches tall. In late spring, it dazzles with frilly, fully double lavender-pink blooms that reveal charming yellow stamens at their center. These abundant flowers perch elegantly on sturdy stems above glossy green foliage that remains vibrant throughout the season, often transforming into stunning purple, rusty orange, or golden hues in the fall.
