ITOH PEONY BALLARENA DE SAVAL
Peonies are perennials that will live for decades, even generations. The
blooms are outrageously beautiful, producing lush, glossy, green foliage all
summer long, turning purplish or gold in the
fall. Peony blooms are available in a wide range of colors, textures and
shapes. A favorite among florists. Peonies attract hummingbirds and
butterflies to the garden and are deer resistant
About This Variety: Itoh Peonies are bred by cross breeding herbaceous type
Peonies with tree Peonies, creating a new hybrid. In the old days they sold
for as much as $1,000.00 each, but these days are much more affordable.
They are somewhat more expensive to propagate, but well worth the investment
in your garden. Itoh Peony
Ballarena De Saval (also known as ‘Ballerina de Saval’) produces lavender
multi-petaled semi-double blooms, atop strong stems and bushy foliage. Makes
for an exotic cut flower. As a hybrid it combines the best qualities of its
parental varieties.
Growing Instructions: Plant Peonies outdoors in spring after all danger of
frost has passed in a partially shaded location. The ideal soil is rich and
porous and drains well, yet still holds enough water for the roots. If your
soil is heavy clay and drains slowly, or very sandy and does not hold water,
add organic soil amendments like peat moss or ground bark. Spread a 3-4 inch
layer of soil amendment if needed and incorporate into the soil to a depth of
10 inches. Plant roots 1-2” deep and 24-48” apart. Cover with soil. Water
thoroughly at planting. While actively growing, water frequently and
thoroughly so that water will reach roots. Mulch to keep the soil cool and to
prevent the soil from drying out. Fertilize every three months.
Care Tip: Treat regularly to control chewing insects, leaf blight and mildew.
Divide in late summer every 3 to 4 years.
