Elevate your garden with the breathtaking artistry of Paeonia suffruticosa 'Dao Jin', a legendary tree peony prized for its flamboyant bicolour display. Known as 'Island Brocade,' this sophisticated woody shrub produces massive, dinner-plate-sized double blooms featuring a spectacular 'marbled' effect of rich raspberry-red and crisp ivory-white. Because the variegation is unstable, no two flowers are identical, creating a living tapestry of ever-changing colour across the plant. Held on a permanent, self-supporting woody framework that reaches 1.5m, 'Dao Jin' provides an architectural focal point in late spring that standard garden peonies cannot match. This 'legacy plant' is exceptionally hardy and long-lived, thriving in well-drained, fertile soil in sunny or lightly shaded positions.
