Shape of a rose

Nick Shaylor is a double-flowered peony that blooms in the shape of a rose. The pale pink, pastel-like colour will lighten during the blooming process.

Origin

This peony variety was bred by Allison in 1931 and quickly made a name for itself, especially in the United States. It has been awarded twice with the prestigious APS Gold Medal, both in 1941 and in 1972.

Tip
Nick Shaylor opens easily and has large, lush flowers. When it’s fully bloomed, this peony can turn a bit top-heavy. We recommend using a vase that can provide adequate support.
