Peonia Arbustiva

Moutan and suffruticosa varieties

The peony called Paeonia suffruticosa or Moutan Peony has been divided, in the new botanical classification, into 5 different species: Paeonia decomposita, Paeonia jishanensis, Paeonia ostii, Paeonia quii, Paeonia rockii. To simplify matters, we will use the old name for all the varieties that cannot be unambiguously classified into the new categories
The main characteristic of Moutan peonies is their very large flowers, sticking out from the leaves; the leaves generally have smoother edges and are thinner than those of hybrids of lutea. The plants usually have slower growth.
