The Purple Erqiao tree peony is a deciduous shrub that can grow up to 4-5 feet tall. It has a woody stem and dark green, glossy leaves that add to its overall beauty.
The most striking feature of this peony is its large, showy flowers. The petals are a deep shade of purple-pink. Each flower is made up of multiple layers of petals, giving it a full, lush appearance. The flowers can reach up to 6 to 7 inches in diameter, creating a mesmerizing visual display.
Many tree peonies, including the Purple Erqiao, have a lovely fragrance. The scent is often described as sweet and delicate, adding an alluring element to the already captivating blooms.
The Purple Erqiao tree peonies typically bloom in late spring to early summer, depending on the climate. They grace the garden with their beautiful flowers for a relatively short period, usually lasting about a week or two.
These peonies prefer a well-drained soil with full sun exposure but can tolerate some light shade. They require regular watering and benefit from fertilization during the growing season.
