Peony Bartzella

Product Description

An abundance of large, well-formed, semi-double to double, yellow blooms with small red flares, that positively glow in the afternoon sun! It has a delicious lemony fragrance, & the blooms are held well above the lush green foliage. Itoh variety. Flowers June-July. Height 60cm. These are the most well-known peonies, poking through the ground each March, their leaves quickly unfurling, & their fat buds bursting in to bloom in late spring & early summer. Ideal for cutting. These incredible new intersectional varieties are the result of crosses between tree & herbaceous types, & have inherited the best qualities of both. They have the attractive dissected foliage of the tree peony but die back in autumn, & are more compact & bushy than traditional herbaceous types. They're very hardy & boast huge flowers up to 25cm in diameter (perhaps 30 to 50 on a mature plant), supported on strong stems that hold the flowers upright even after heavy rain & make them ideal for cutting. The first successful crosses were made by Toichi Itoh in 1948, & they're a must for peony connoisseurs! Paeonia plants are a traditional mainstay of the English cottage garden border, their voluptuous blooms evocative of another era. They're hardy, very easy to grow, relatively drought-tolerant & will put on an annual performance for decades to come. Ideal for cutting, they come in an awe-inspiring range of shapes & colours.
