Paeonia ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ – A Timeless, Fragrant White Peony

Paeonia ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ is an exquisite, heirloom peony cherished for its large, fully double, creamy-white blooms that exude a soft, luminous glow. This classic variety, introduced in 1856, remains a favorite among gardeners and florists due to its elegant beauty and intoxicating, sweet fragrance. Blooming in late spring to early summer, its lush green foliage provides season-long interest, making it a perfect addition to perennial borders, cottage gardens, and cutting gardens. With its timeless charm and easy-care nature, ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ is a must-have for any landscape.

Why Grow Paeonia ‘Duchesse de Nemours’?

  • Elegant, Pure White Blooms – Large, double flowers open in creamy white with a hint of pale lemon at the center before maturing to a pristine white.
  • Heavenly Fragrance – A strong, sweet scent makes this variety a standout for scented gardens and floral arrangements.
  • Long-Lived & Low Maintenance – Peonies can thrive for decades with minimal care, becoming more magnificent each year.
  • Excellent Cut Flower – The strong stems and stunning flowers make it perfect for bouquets and floral displays.
  • Deer & Rabbit Resistant – Naturally unappealing to browsing animals, ensuring reliable performance in the garden.

Where to Site Your Paeonia ‘Duchesse de Nemours’

This peony thrives in full sun to light shade and well-drained, fertile soil. It’s an excellent choice for perennial borders, cottage gardens, and formal garden plantings. ‘Duchesse de Nemours’ pairs beautifully with Lavender, Delphiniums, Roses, and Alliums, creating a harmonious and elegant planting scheme. It also works well alongside darker-colored peonies or foliage plants, offering a striking contrast.

How to Grow and Care for Your Paeonia ‘Duchesse de Nemours’

  • Soil – Prefers rich, well-drained soil with added organic matter. Avoid heavy, waterlogged conditions.
  • Light – Grows best in full sun but can tolerate partial shade (though flowering may be reduced).
  • Watering – Keep soil evenly moist, especially during the growing season, but avoid overwatering.

Maintenance:

  • Staking – Large, full blooms may need support to prevent flopping, especially in wet or windy conditions.
  • Deadheading – Remove spent flowers to maintain a tidy appearance and encourage plant vigor.
  • Pruning – Cut back foliage to ground level in autumn to prevent disease and ensure a strong spring regrowth.
  • Dividing – Peonies rarely need division but can be divided in early fall if necessary.
