Years Away From Making Revenue, Peony Farm Already Blooming

JUNEAU, Alaska – Brad Fluetsch has been growing peonies at his home in North Douglas since 1992 and they do really well. So well, people have asked to buy them.

“We’ve turned down people wanting them for their weddings. My wife doesn’t want to sell them out of the garden. They’re hers,” Fluetsch said.

Over the years, their peony garden has grown to about 75 different plants of various types, including the white Duchess de Nemour, Bowl of Cream and Henry Sass, the pink Sarah Bernhardt and the vibrant red Felix Supreme.
