That fragrance! With large, beautiful raspberry-red flowers, Irwin Altman has the nostalgic charm of an old fashioned peony. There is something to be said about the clarity of the luminous, full-double, symmetrical flowers, and the sweet, heavenly perfume will leave you craving more. Irwin Altman?s strong stems contribute to its upright habit, and perfect cut flower qualities make this a very versatile variety that can be enjoyed in the garden or in the home. Or both! We can?t think of anything better than the superb scent of this peony wafting through our den. Known to put up large, well formed flowers in the first year of growth. Side buds extend the blooming period.
