Bold, sunny, and incredibly floriferous, Bartzella peony is a standout in any garden. This award-winning Itoh peony produces an abundance of large, semi-double to double blooms in a vibrant golden-yellow, each accented with a soft red flare at the center. Lightly fragrant and carried on exceptionally strong stems, the flowers sit above lush, deep green foliage—creating a full, shrub-like presence that looks beautiful even after bloom.
Blooming in late spring to early summer, Bartzella is known for its long flowering period and impressive number of blooms per plant. As an intersectional peony, it combines the best traits of herbaceous and tree peonies: sturdy growth, disease resistance, and reliable perennial performance.
