Plant description
The large, highly fragrant, rich pink semi-double flowers of Paeonia 'Sebastian Maas' emerge above attractive glossy green, deeply lobed foliage from early to midsummer. This peony adds a swanky exuberance to summer plantings and is superb as a cut flower.
All of our peonies are field grown. We supply potted plants throughout the year, and subject to availability during the dormant winter months, we also offer bare-root plants (or tubers). If buying a potted plant, please keep in mind that some of the compost may still be a little loose, falling away when the plant is removed from the pot.

How to care for Paeonia Sebastian Maas:
Where available, bare root peonies should be planted out or potted up as soon as possible, avoiding frosty or waterlogged conditions. Choose a sunny, well-drained position, as peonies flower best in full sun and dislike being moved once established.
Plant all peonies into well-prepared soil, ensuring the highest bud on the crown is no deeper than 5cm (2in) below the surface. For newly planted plants, protect emerging shoots from late frosts in their first spring. Keep plants well watered and fed during growth, using balanced, slow-release fertiliser rather than high-nitrogen feeds, and remove spent flowers once faded.
Mulch with well-rotted compost or manure, support tall stems to prevent flopping, maintain good air circulation, and remove any yellowing or diseased leaves. Leave remaining foliage intact after flowering, cutting back only in autumn once it has naturally died down. Avoid disturbing established crowns, as peonies dislike being moved may take a season or two to establish.
