Command Performance
This herbaceous peony variety is known for its spectacular, massive double blooms that can reach up to 8–10 inches across. Petals open in a bold, fiery red and soften slightly as the flower matures, creating a dramatic and unforgettable garden presence. With strong stems and an impressive vase life, Command Performance is equally admired in the landscape and as a showstopping cut flower. A midseason bloomer, it provides abundant color when many other peonies are at their peak.

Care Instructions
Your peonies will arrive in a tight bud stage to ensure safe delivery and longer vase life. Buds will begin to open within 1–2 days—please account for this timing if you need full blooms for an event. To speed up opening, place them in a warmer room and you can allow direct sunlight.
Open your box as soon as they arrive. Trim stems at a 45° angle, place in a clean vase with fresh water, and keep away from direct sunlight. Change the water daily and re-trim stems every other day to enjoy your blooms for as long as possible.
