Peony Al's Choice

Peony Al's Choice

Description

Paeonia Itoh "Al's Choice". An Itoh peony, with a twist. Selected by Allan Rogers, auteur of "Peonies" having more than 60 years of peony experience and growing peonies from his childhood. A taller variety with a spreading habit, thus giving away its strong growing potential. The flowers are tender yellow with a few paintbrushes of red and magenta.

A tuft of stamens circle the prominent green white tipped carpels. Flowers open consecutively assuring a long flowering season. Like most Itohs this variety does not require any staking and the foliage is an asset for your garden until the first frost arrives. 

Registered in 2004.
