Paeonia tenuifolia - Itoba
A rare and striking fern-leaf peony, ‘Itoba’ features vibrant, single, cup-shaped flowers in glowing red with luminous yellow stamens that appear to float atop a cushion of finely divided, fern-like foliage. This petite beauty blooms very early in spring—often one of the first peonies of the season—and stands out for both its delicate texture and bold colour contrast. Compact and elegant, it's equally perfect for edging, rock gardens, sunny borders, or pollinator-friendly designs. Hardy, low-maintenance, and generally deer-resistant, it adds a unique flair with minimal effort.
- 1 growing root per pack, 2-3 eyes
- Glowing red single blooms with yellow stamens
