The Itoh peony flower is a hybrid of common herbaceous peonies and tree peonies, also known as the intersectional peony. These flowers have enormous, long-lasting blooms and strong stems, as well as dark green, lush, deeply lobed foliage that lasts until autumn. With blooms that can spread up to 8 inches across, Itoh peonies are available in a variety of vibrant colors including yellow, coral, pink, red, and white. The developer was Japanese but passed away before these were perfected. Development was taken over by a breeder in California and they became available in the 1970's but were very pricey because of their rarity. In 2018 I was fortunate to visit a garden that specialized in these peonies.

By chance I posted a photo of some peonies on Facebook this morning. However, you are the master of the flower photo. Beautiful work

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Kathy, I don't know if this special peony variety is for sale in my country. I've never seen it here though. I'm going to look for it, but I'm not sure if I'll get results. The originality and the time will probably be to blame for that. Thanks to your excellent 'detective nose' when it comes to flowers, you were successful, resulting in this beautiful capture. Thanks for that.

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins!
