Peony First Arrival

Peony First Arrival

Description

Paeonia Itoh "First Arrival". The lavender blooms are semi-double and abundantly adorn the dark green tree peony like foliage. The plant forms a nicely rounded bush of 60 to 70 cm height.

As its name suggests it is one of the first Itohs to flower. Like most Itohs this variety will need a few years before it reaches maturity, but in return for your patience it will grace your garden for a very long time. 

Registered in 1986.
