Peony Angel Cheeks
Notify MePeony 'Angel Cheeks' is a striking late-season variety with large, fully double flowers in soft blush pink. The densely packed petals have a ruffled texture, with subtle hints of cream at the centre, creating a luxurious display. A delicate fragrance adds to its charm, making it a standout in any garden. Strong stems support the heavy flowers, ensuring a long-lasting show. The deep green foliage remains attractive throughout the growing season, providing excellent contrast.
Perfect for garden beds, borders, and cut flower arrangements. Adds seasonal interest and structure to perennial gardens.
Thrives in full sun to partial shade in fertile, well-draining soil. Space plants approximately 60 cm apart for healthy growth and airflow.
Reaches around 80–90 cm tall and 60–80 cm wide.
Trimming: Cut back foliage to ground level in late autumn after it has died back to promote vigorous spring growth.
Deadheading: Remove spent flowers to maintain a tidy appearance and encourage energy storage in the roots.
Fertilising: Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring as new growth appears. After flowering, use a low-nitrogen fertiliser to support root health. Avoid over-fertilising, as it can reduce flowering.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist during the growing season, especially in dry spells. Water deeply rather than frequently to encourage strong root development.
Pest Control: Monitor for aphids on new growth and treat with insecticidal soap or a strong jet of water if needed.
Disease Management: Peonies can be susceptible to botrytis blight, which causes blackened stems and bud rot. Remove affected plant material and ensure good air circulation. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal issues. A copper-based fungicide can help if needed.
