Description
The Julia Rose Itoh Peony is part of a category of hybrids resulting from a cross between a tree peony and an herbaceous peony, characterised by significant growth and the production of flowers similar to those of tree varieties, carried on very strong stems that do not bend under the weight of the flowers. This one is equipped with rather unusual flowers of tender multicoloured hues. Different shades of pink and apricot on a soft yellow background jostle on semi-double and slightly ruffled corollas of a beautiful size. This variety blooms rather late, towards the end of May.
This opulent hybrid herbaceous peony belongs, like its two parents, to the peony family. Itoh peonies are the result of the work carried out by the Japanese breeder Toichi Itoh, starting in 1948, who bequeathed them his name. These plants, known as 'intersectional', are exceptional perennials that bring together the qualities of herbaceous and tree species, combining the vigour of herbaceous peonies with all the splendour of tree peonies, in terms of both foliage and flowering.
'Julia Rose' is a creation by Anderson dating from 1989. The plant reaches maturity with a clump of about 75 cm (30in) in height with a spread of 60 cm (24in), sometimes more. Its growth is rather slow, but faster than that of tree peonies. The plant develops large deciduous leaves, alternate, composed of dark green and pointed leaflets. The flowering takes place for one month precisely from May 25th to June 25th, and in abundance. Semi-rigid leafy stems appear carrying large buds at their tips that open into large solitary, semi-double flowers, 16 cm (6in) in diameter. They are composed of petals with a silky appearance, presenting a wide range of colours, starting with a pretty deep old pink at the base. The centre of the flower is occupied by cream-colored stamens. The plant disappears in winter, surviving in the form of buds located at the surface of the soil.
The Itoh Peony hates heavy waterlogged soils, especially in winter, and appreciates partially shaded locations such as the edge of a grove or the shelter of a hedge. It is an exceptional plant that deserves a prime location. It is often planted in groups of 3 in a shrub or perennial bed. They create beautiful combinations with irises or roses, as well as catmints, foxgloves, bellflowers, lupins, columbines, or daisies. Cut peony flowers are truly wonderful in a bouquet with lilacs and bellflowers.
Tips: Herbaceous peonies should not be buried more than 3cm (1in) deep, otherwise they will take several years to bloom again.

Planting and care
The Julia Rose Itoh Peony is planted from mid-September to April, leaving a spacing of 80cm (32in), in fertile, deep, humus-bearing, moist and well-drained soil. Choose a sunny but not scorching location, with partial shade in hotter southern regions. Avoid permanent mulching as it can bring diseases, and apply rose fertiliser or compost in March. Pruning is unnecessary, but remove faded flowers and stained parts to prevent fungal diseases. Divide old clumps in autumn but only if the plant becomes overcrowded; please note that peonies have fragile roots and dislike being moved, and following this operation the plant may not flower for several years. Between February and April or October and November, cut the foliage down to ground level. Provide a support stake for the floral stems.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
