Paeonia suffruticosa is a perennial and deciduous shrub. Slow growth to an eventual 3-5 ft. tall, with handsome divided leaves and very large single to double flowers in early spring. Takes several years to reveal their true potential, but the results are spectacular.

Planting Instructions: 1. Dig a hole 2 times the width and 1 and 1/2 times the height of the container. 2. Set rootball at ground level. 3. Prepare soil mix of equal parts soil and soil amendment. 4. Backfill with amended soil. 5. Build Basin and water.
