Indulge in the luxurious, timeless beauty of Paeonia suffruticosa 'Bai Yuan Hong Xia', a premier Chinese tree peony prized for its magnificent floral display. In late spring, this hardy deciduous shrub erupts from plump buds into a profusion of massive, velvety-red double blooms that offer an intense, sweet fragrance. The opulent flowers are perfectly contrasted by dark, deeply-incised foliage that provides architectural interest long after the petals have fallen. Reaching a mature height and spread of approximately 1.5 metres, this 'legacy plant' only improves with age, developing a permanent woody framework that remains strictly upright. Remarkably resilient and easy to maintain, it thrives in sunny or lightly shaded, well-drained positions, making it an exceptional focal point for traditional borders or sophisticated large containers.
