Description

Pink Ardour Itoh Peony is a stunning intersectional hybrid that combines the best traits of tree and herbaceous peonies. It produces an abundance of very large, luminous, semi-double to double flowers in a vivid, clear magenta-pink. The blooms feature a central burst of golden stamens and are held perfectly upright on incredibly strong, woody stems that require no staking. Its compact, shrub-like form and exceptional disease resistance make it a modern, low-maintenance powerhouse for sunny borders.

  • Vivid Magenta-Pink Blooms: Bears numerous large, glowing pink flowers with a shimmering quality and a showy center of gold stamens.

  • Superior Stem Strength: Inherits strong, woody stems from its tree peony parent, making it completely self-supporting and impervious to flopping.

  • Prolific & Long-Blooming: Produces a remarkable number of blooms over a period of 3-4 weeks, significantly longer than many herbaceous peonies.

  • Compact, Neat Habit: Forms a dense, rounded, shrub-like mound of attractive, deeply dissected foliage that remains tidy all season.

  • Exceptional Disease Resistance: Highly resistant to common peony ailments like powdery mildew and botrytis, ensuring clean, healthy foliage.

Faqs

Q: What is an "Itoh" or "Intersectional" peony?
A: It is a cross between a tree peony and an herbaceous peony. It combines the strong stems, large flowers, and extended bloom time of tree peonies with the die-back-to-the-ground habit and winter hardiness of herbaceous peonies.

Q: How is it different from a regular herbaceous peony?
A: Key differences include: stronger, non-flopping stems; a longer bloom period (3-4 weeks); more blooms per plant; and superior disease resistance. It also has finer, more dissected foliage.
