A peony can outlive the gardener who planted it. The label should last too. Our engraved labels typically last 8-10 years outdoors. They mount on stainless steel markers that won’t rust or bend and last indefinitely under normal conditions.
We engrave every label in Savannah, Missouri, and email you a proof before we start.
How to write peony names
Most growers use the cultivar name, then the originator and year. Many add the type. Send your list in any format and we’ll engrave it the way you write it.
| Format | Line 1 | Line 2 | Line 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | SARAH BERNHARDT | Lemoine 1906 | Herbaceous |
| Itoh | BARTZELLA | Anderson 1986 | Itoh |
| Two lines | CORAL CHARM | Wissing 1964 | |
| Tree peony | [Cultivar] | [Originator] [Year] | Tree · Planted 2026 |
Tip: check names against the American Peony Society registry before you send your list.
