Bartzella Itoh Peony

×
bare-root plants
Paeonia lactiflora x suffruticosa

Itoh Peonies were born out of the search for a perfect yellow peony such as this!

We have to imagine that these radiant yellow blooms with very slight orange-red center flares would have warmed the cockles of Dr. Itoh’s heart. Bred by Roger Anderson, who carried on Dr. Itoh’s work of developing the perfect yellow peony. The fragrant 6" semi-double to double blooms are simply gorgeous, and foliage looks great all season into the fall.

34–36" tall. Mid-to-late season blooms. Z3–8. 3–5 eyes. BACK!

Items from our perennial plants warehouse will ship around September 30 through October.

Additional Information

Itoh Peonies

30–36" tall. Also known as Intersectional Hybrid Peonies, Itoh Peonies are a cross between herbaceous garden peonies and tree peonies and feature the best of both. Giant blossoms (like the ones on tree peonies) open just after the garden peonies have faded.

The growth habit is similar to garden peonies with attractive mounded foliage that dies back in the winter. Don’t cut it back to the ground in fall. Leave at least 6" of hardwood stems above the ground­—next year’s buds need room to develop on the lower stems. Full planting and pruning instructions will be included with your order.

Flowers

All flowers are open-pollinated except where noted.
