Bartzella
Peonies
“Barzella” peonies are herbaceous perennials with large, double, lemon-yellow flowers that have a slightly spicy fragrance. The flowers bloom from late spring to early summer. The plant can grow to be up to 55 cm tall and wide, with dense foliage of green leaves that turn reddish-brown in the fall.
As one of the first yellow-flowered intersectional peonies, the development of “Barzella” was a significant breakthrough in peony breeding. Intersectional peonies, also known as Itoh peonies, are a cross between herbaceous and tree peonies that combine the best qualities of both. They are prized for their large, showy flowers as well as their sturdy, long-lasting stems.
“Barzella” has received numerous awards and accolades, including the American Peony Society’s Award of Landscape Merit and the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit. Its popularity among gardeners and florists has elevated it to the world’s most sought-after peony variety.
