A plant most special in appearance, Yellow King is adorned in Japanese-form flowers in a most elegant colour combination that are worn close to the foliage. The large flowers have the palest of pink guards that cup a charming central poof of incurved yellow staminodes of a happy, creamy yellow. The overall effect is a harmonious and refined flower amongst the Japanese-form varieties. Plants have a compact nature and are free flowering, with side buds that extend the bloom period. This plant has the distinction of being registered by Alice Harding, a monumental figure in the world of peonies, making this a collector plant of sorts.
