   APS Gold Medal Peonies


      A new Gold Medal Variety has been named for 2009. Since 1923 the American peony society has, from time to time, chosen certain peonies to receive the society's gold medal for outstanding performance. This year they have chosen a tree peony by the name of "Hephestos" to add to the APS Gold Medal peonies. The following is a current list of the American Peony Society gold medal peonies.


      A turquoise star indicates those gold medal winners that will be on display for our 2009 peony show.

      A red star indicates those gold medal winners that are available for sale at our 2009 peony show.
