Create a spring display with our Tree Peony, a long-lived deciduous shrub prized for its large flowers and divided foliage. Unlike herbaceous peonies, its woody stems remain above ground through winter, developing into a garden feature.

Supplied in a 9cm pot, this Paeonia plant is available in White, Purple, Red, Yellow, Pink or Lavender. The bowl-shaped blooms appear from late spring into early summer, adding colour to borders, cottage gardens and sheltered courtyards.

Plant your Tree Peony in a sunny or lightly shaded position, protected from strong winds. Choose deep, fertile, well-drained soil and water regularly during its first growing season while the roots establish. Apply a layer of garden compost around the base each spring, keeping it away from the stems.

Tree peonies need little pruning. Remove dead shoots in late winter and faded flowers after blooming. Once settled, this hardy flowering shrub can reward your garden for decades.

Watering Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil evenly moist while the plant establishes. Once established, water during prolonged dry periods rather than little and often, allowing the soil to drain between waterings. Container-grown plants should be checked more frequently in warm or windy weather.

Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile, well-drained loam. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Mulch after planting and keep the root zone free from prolonged waterlogging, particularly through winter.
