DESCRIPTION
Paeonia obovata is a woodland peony native to China, Japan, Korea, and parts of eastern Russia, where it thrives in forest settings during mid-spring. It produces single, cup-shaped flowers ranging from white to rose-purple, each revealing a cluster of yellow stamens at the center. The blossoms carry a mild fragrance, and after flowering, they develop distinctive starfish-like seed pods. The plant features gray-green, biternate foliage composed of oval to egg-shaped leaflets.
Paeonia obovata is well suited to shaded woodland settings, where its refined growth habit enhances the natural landscape. The foliage emerges in early spring with a soft red flush, gradually deepening to green as the season progresses. With its delicate spring flowers and distinctive late-season seed pods, this peony brings quiet beauty and layered interest throughout the growing year.
