Paeonia ‘Lollipop’
Itoh Hybrid Peony |
USDA Zone: 3-9 |
Plant number: 1.900.420
Itoh Peonies are rare and unusual hybrids between Garden Peonies and Tree Peonies. There are several varieties, all highly sought after by collectors, yet easy to grow and very hardy. This selection forms a midsized upright bush of lush green leaves. The large, semi-double blooms emerge bright yellow but develop dark purple ‘stripes’ as they mature. Peonies seldom need to be moved or divided, but if necessary it should be carried out only in the fall. Clean up the dead leaves in the fall to help prevent disease problems. Plant usually die to the ground, or to very low woody stems for the winter. Much hardier than generally assumed. For indoor display, cut an inch below a bloom and float it in a rose bowl.
