Peony Unique is one of the many single red Itoh Peonies that we grow at Peony Nursery Peony Shop Holland Intersectional peony hybrids, also known as Itoh hybrids, named in honor of Toichi Itoh, the originator of these unique hybrid peonies. They are representative of the progeny of crossing or hybridizing the two main groups or selections of peonies; the herbaceous hybrids which die down sub surface buds during their dormant season and the tree or woody shrub peonies which retain a year round woody branch structure above ground level. During their dormant season, the Itoh or Intersectional hybrids retain only extremely short (1"-2") woody stems above ground level. Ornamentally, they achieve the best of both parental worlds with the handsome flowers and foliage of the woody tree peonies displayed on an herbaceous plant, with annual new growth originating from buds below ground level. Strong healthy plants form attractive dense, neat rounded bushes which are shorter in stature than most tree peonies. Flowers are displayed above the handsome foliage that remains greener longer than their herbaceous parents. Intersectional hybrids are somewhat hardier than tree peonies and more tolerant of heat and humidity which extends their ornamental potential in both the North and south.

Growing Unique a peony

The fall season could be considered to be the right time for growing peony plants. These peonies tend to be unbelievably long-lived plants lasting up to 50 to a maximum of 70 years, so right after you have the peonies selected and planted in the right way, a person will definitely benefit from them for a long time. These plants have a preference for a bright position having a well-drained soil. A good air movement available around the plant is required. These sorts of circumstances help peonies prevent illness problems. To arrange a sowing hole meant for a bareroot peony plant, dig the ground to some level of 12-18inch. Work with garden tools to release the edges of the particular seeding hole at the same time. It's actually extremely important and vital that the "eyes", or growth, nodes, located near the base of the old stem, end up no more than 2 inches below the ground surface area.
