Command Performance

Command Performance is a captivating hybrid peony with parentage from Lactiflora #139 (an unnamed anemone) and Good Cheer. It first bloomed around 1980, showcasing stunning cardinal red flowers (RGS 53A). Although it lacks pollen or stamens, its moderate increase and one bud per stem make it a reliable midseason bloomer. The flower expands to a 7-inch globe, featuring greenish-yellow carpels with pale pink tips. Command Performance emits a strong fragrance that adds to its allure. With a height of 30-32 inches and medium green foliage veined lighter, it stands as an impressive presence. Seedling #994.
