Paeonia Garden Candy® Pineapple Fizz™

Double yellow

This variety was the favorite, most consistent yellow in Don Smith's collection. Unlike other yellows on the market, Pineapple Fizz has fully double, lemon-yellow flowers held tight to the plant, making a stunning, consistent display. This golden beauty is your ticket to a bright, colorful spring garden! As with all Garden Candy® ITOHS, Pineapple Fizz is deer and mildew-resistant and has three lovely seasons of interest with its maroon fall color and clean summer foliage.
