Peony Pink Hawaiian Coral
Peony Pink Hawaiian Coral
This magnificent peony gives a new look to the garden or landscape bed each day from May to June. Pink Hawaiian Coral features luxuriant, 5½-6" fully double blooms that actually change color with age! The beautiful peonies begin life an elegant rose-coral color, changing to pale coral, and finally nearly cream! At times, all three colors may be present at the same time. If that isn't enough to wow you, Pink Hawaiian Coral also emits a lush fragrance throughout borders, cutting gardens or mixed beds. This is a truly wonderful new addition to our perennial plant lineup!

Beautiful, big, early bloomer
I planted three bulbs in 2017, one didn't make it through the summer, but as you can see the other two are thriving. 7 years and three years of drought later, the blooms show over my 4' privacy fence. The color is this pretty salmon/coral that turns into a creamy yellow. Two for the price of one. My mom thought it was a whole different plant the first couple bloomings. Smells amazing. Holds up well as a cut flower.
Does't look like picture
Not a double. Color is accurate. That's about it. Grows well. 2 years in, got 5 flowers this year.
Color fades quickly
Two of three roots came up. One of two flowered their second year in the ground. The color starts out coral but quickly fades to almost white. I didn't know the blooms last a week.
My favorite of all my peonies!
The most gorgeous peonies ever! They bloomed the first spring, need little water, survive 100+ heat, & were even bulldozed & buried for a day by accident during construction work.
Not recommended 😢
I purchased several peonies last spring and nothing came up except for one tiny little sprout that did nothing. I have grown peonies for years but never had any problems like this.
Did not grow
I planted these as soon as I received them and there are no signs of growth.
Total BUST
Ordered 3 bags of these and not one of them came up. Pictures looked great but product didn't perform. Planted as recommended in 3 different locations, fertilized, watered, but no joy. Do not recommend.
Merchant Response
Thank you for your review. We were sorry to hear the Peony Pink Hawaiian Coral failed to grow. We are delighted to let you know we guarantee our merchandise and we will be reaching out to you with a positive resolution.
Did not come up
I have great luck with everything I bought from this company EXCEPT this peony. I put in ground, fertilized, watered and nothing came up. I dug them up and nothing ever even sprouted.
No eyes...
I ordered 2 bags, got 6 dried up roots. I couldn't find a single eye. Planted them not knowing if they are right side up or not. Won't order again. Took a pic of 1. Nothing like the drawing. Will have to dig them up to see if anything is happening or if they're dead. Should probably dig them up and return them.
Not exactly what's pictured, but pretty.
I was hoping for similar blooms as pictured, with softer colors. But it came out much deeper, solid, salmon, which is alright. The form is good.

- Q
The Peony Pink Hawaiian coral I just ordered says in one part of the description that it blooms May-June. But in the product specifications it says "Bloom Time Midsummer, and again in late summer to early fall". I just ordered it based on the double-bloom times but now am wondering whether that was a mis-print. I've had issues with descriptions on this site before. Please advise.
- Asked by Charlene

How long does it typically take to notice growth? It has been a few weeks since planting and I haven't seen any green popping out
- Asked by Mellanie
- Verified Reply - AngelaIt can take 6-8 weeks for the Peony Pink Hawaiian Coral to begin to show top growth. The plant is spending energy establishing a healthy root system to support it for decades. Your plant is covered by our No Risk Guarantee should it not perform.
