“The Paeony Which Changes Everything.”

At first glance, the notion of welcoming yet another paeony into your garden may seem unnecessary. After all, most seasoned hands have already chosen a few beloved varieties they trust. Nevertheless, anyone who has stood before an Itoh paeony, aglow in full and glorious bloom, recognises at once a different kind of beauty - one which belongs to another realm entirely. A moment of frustration often follows. Why are these marvels so rare to find? And why have they long carried such an astonishing cost?

Their beginnings hold the secret. Itoh peonies emerged from an improbable crossing - where the noble tree paeony met the humbler herbaceous form. For years, Doctor Itoh tried to coax such a bond into bloom thousands of times over decades. This demanded persistence, reverence, and the kind of hands which serve the garden like a calling. Each plant which thrived stood as a quiet marvel, and early ones carried the weight of rarity, priced accordingly. A first-class Itoh paeony root cost more than £100.00.

Choose your Itoh paeony from these three varieties – whilst limited stocks last.

Simply Scrumptious

Your eyes meet lush raspberry and apricot petals swirling with textured complexity, creating a feast for your senses as each bloom lifts your garden with juicy colour, gentle energy, and radiant charm.

Double Bubble

Your garden welcomes rounded pink blooms rising with airy fullness, releasing a soft floral haze around you. Each globe brings buoyant glow, lively cheer, and bright beauty into your border.

Noa Jolie

Your eyes meet dark pink-burgundy petals touched with rose, sending a gentle glow through your garden. Each bloom offers velvety depth, serene balance, uplifting colour, and graceful aura filling to fill your garden.

Many gardeners have been bound by what could be afforded and turned to traditional varieties. Yet none offered quite the same vigour, nobility, or dependability as an Itoh with their lush petals, large flowers (up to 20cm across), strong and upright stems, and generous presence in bloom.

In the crowded world of horticulture, where plant after plant claims to be the best, choosing can feel like wandering without compass or map. Many promise greatness. Only a few achieve it. Here, at last, comes the quiet revelation: no paeony surpasses the Itoh.

The blooms endure for weeks, not days. the stems hold fast beneath magnificent blossoms, never yielding to the weight. Itoh peonies return, without falter, each spring, asking almost nothing in return. As for the colours soft pastels, warm pinks, haunting corals – these speak a language only the Itoh knows.

Now, the most interesting part. Through specialist contacts, some Itoh paeony bare roots, these once-elusive wonders, have become attainable to de Jager customers at an absolute bargain price. There is a limited number though. Delivery 7-10 days. Plant on arrival.

Choose the Itoh you desire from the three shown, then welcome an Itoh into your garden, and you shall witness not merely growth, but a quiet transformation. One you will carry with you, long after the petals fall.
