This is a cultivar of the rockii tree peony commonly known in the U.S. as "Joseph Rock". It is named for the botanist who first brought seeds of this type of peony from northern China to America early in the 20th century. The Chinese grow more than 100 variations of white rockii tree peonies. This particular one, known as "Snow Lotus" is very fast growing and extremely hardy. Flowers are white with dark maroon- purple flares at the petal base. Flowers are 8-10" in diameter, in the lotus form and are held well above the foliage. Flowers have a dense, sweet fragrance. All rockii hybrids are vigorous and tall growing, and extremely floriferous. Expect these plants to grow to 4 ft. wide and 5 ft. tall by their 10th year (5 yrs. or so after planting). These may be pruned after blooming to keep them smaller. Order for USDA Zones 4-9. Click Here to view all Products in our Tree Peonies Category
