White Frost – 30 Roots
A clean, refined white for growers targeting the premium wedding and floral-design market.
Not all white peonies are created equal.
For a floral designer working in a carefully controlled white, cream or neutral palette, small details matter. White Frost produces the kind of clean, sophisticated flower that belongs in that market—large, full double blooms opening to a beautiful pure white with a subtle ivory glow toward the center.
One of its most valuable characteristics is what you don't see: the mature flower is remarkably clean, without the conspicuous red flecking that can appear in some white peonies.
That matters when your customer is a wedding florist looking for white—not almost white.
White Frost was developed by renowned American hybridizer David Reath and registered with the American Peony Society in 1992. It produces substantial, fragrant double flowers with good substance on strong, compact plants. It is also a heavy bloomer, giving the commercial grower the combination we're always looking for: an exceptional flower on a plant capable of producing it in quantity.
The flower itself has presence without looking coarse. The petals form a beautifully organized, full double bloom with enough structure to stand on its own in bridal work while remaining versatile enough for bouquets, centerpieces and larger event installations.
And then there's the fragrance.
White Frost is notably fragrant, adding another layer of luxury for growers selling directly to florists, wedding designers and local event customers.
For a developing cut-flower farm, we see White Frost as a way to build a better white program—not simply adding another white cultivar, but adding one selected specifically for the quality of the finished flower.
Why we recommend White Frost for cut-flower growers:
- Clean, premium white color for wedding and event work
- Mature flowers notably free of distracting red flecks
- Large, full double flowers with refined form
- Heavy flowering habit
- Strong stems suited to cutting
- Excellent flower substance

A thirty-plant block of White Frost isn't just another row of white peonies. It's the beginning of a reliable supply of exceptionally clean white flowers—the kind of product you can photograph beautifully, bring confidently to a designer, and build into a premium wedding-flower program.
For growers who want to move their peony production toward the higher end of the floral market, White Frost is the white you plant when the details matter.
