Paeonia Garden Candy® All that Jazz

Creamy white with purple stripes

Looking to add a little pizazz to your garden in early summer? Look no further than All That Jazz. This peony was selected primarily because of its unique speckled flowers. The flower petals are creamy white, moderately speckled (and often also randomly streaked) with dark maroon. When first open, the petals are also flushed or suffused with pink, which gives the flowers an overall pink look but which quickly fades away as the flowers mature in the sun. In addition, the center of each flower is dominated by large, very prominent dark plum-colored basal flares that often appear almost black and extend outward at least a third to halfway up. This unique combination of characteristics creates a very striking and unusual kaleidoscope-like effect.

In addition, the expression of these characteristics varies significantly from flower to flower, so every flower is unique. The flowers are medium-sized, up to 6” (15 cm) in diameter, and are lightly but pleasantly fragrant. The name comes from the widely acclaimed and award-winning 1979 American musical film by the same name. All That Jazz is the first and only commercially available speckled ITOH peony - a real show-stopper.
