Tree Peony ‘Fragrant Green Ball’

Despite being a rare variety that is highly revered in China, Tree Peony ‘Fragrant Green Ball’ is an easy variety to grow, and a great choice for gardeners starting out on their Tree Peony journey. ‘Fragrant Green Ball’ is a vigorous, adaptable variety forming a strong, multi-branching framework. Late to blossom, the flowers are huge and prolific. Each giant, globular bloom measures around 18cm x 10cm and is packed with layer upon layer of silky petals. The flowers emerge a soft green colour then transform to pale pink when fully open. You won’t be able to resist burrowing your nose into these enticing blooms and inhaling their delicate spicy-sweet scent! Height and spread: 120cm (4ft).There are few shrubs which can rival the glamour of tree peonies. Although they are expensive, these are real garden showpieces whose beauty can’t fail to excite gasps of awe. They look like divas but they’re not difficult to grow, provided their basic requirements are met – a sheltered spot in full sun (or light shade) and fertile, free-draining soil. Tree peonies are fully hardy, generally unbothered by pests or diseases and don’t require routine pruning. They also last a life-time, producing abundant, dinner-plate sized, lightly fragrant blooms in late spring/early summer for decades. Their flowers are borne on a sturdy framework of upright, woody stems clothed in deep green, divided leaves.Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
