Magnificent and extraordinary, ‘Backpacker’ charms and hypnotize us with its large, double purple peony-like flowers.

One of the best qualities for why we selected this specimen is because it is not dropping petals on the table; even when the blooms are completely spent the petals remain on the stems.
