Midway through the season, compact Patio Peony Rome delivers a luxurious burst of color that’s perfect for patios and small-space gardens. Rome features fully double, frilly blooms in sugar pink, with darker pink bomb centers and “peek-a-boo” yellow stamens, all held neatly above sturdy stems for a tidy, upright look. Attractive foliage is tinged red in spring, matures to glossy green through summer, and often finishes in rich fall tones.
