Peace aquired its name during world war II, and legend has it that budwood was flown out of Paris just before the Germans arrived there. It has since given sport to many new varieties such as Chicago Peace and Flaming Peace.
The foliage on Peace is large and leathery and the plant is quite bushy and vigorous. The buds are very fat and open to a very large, full bloom. If this bloom is cut when only partially open and brought inside, it will be fairly fragrant when it opens up. The colors of the bloom can range from very pale yellow edged in pink to a deeper yellow with the pink color spreading accross the petals.
