Paeonia lactiflora 'Bartzella'

(1986) This successful cross between a perennial peony and a tree peony blooms with large, semi-double, fresh-scented yellow flowers with red spots around the centre, on very sturdy 90 cm stems.

After years of experience in the Netherlands, our grower has put together a TOP assortment of the most beautiful and successful peonies.

They grow in all types of soil:
In clay, growth is trouble-free; do not over-fertilise and ensure good drainage.
In sandy soil, the plants remain somewhat smaller; sufficient fertilising keeps the plant in good condition.
In peat soil, growth is generally good, but the plants will need to be replanted or replaced slightly earlier.

Place peonies in a sunny spot and plant them (immediately upon arrival) so shallowly that only a few cm of soil covers the crown; firm the soil down first.
We supply bare roots; each plant has been growing for 4–5 years, so the chance of early flowering is high! Some varieties grow into their intended (double) form as they get older. Colours may vary slightly from year to year and depend on the preceding winter cold. Because we have to wait until the plants have died back naturally, the bare roots are available EARLIEST FROM OCTOBER.
