Heavenly Promise (Tao Hua Yuan) Rockii Tree Peony — 3 Year Old Plant

Once established, it becomes a permanent garden presence you’ll look forward to every spring. Your bareroot plant ships dormant in fall (September–November), 2–3 years old with 2–3 branches.

Expect about 3 feet of new growth in your first spring season. Care is straightforward. Plant in partial shade with fertile, well-drained soil that leans neutral to slightly alkaline. Water moderately during establishment — evenly moist, never waterlogged. In colder climates, a light layer of mulch over winter is all it needs.
