DESCRIPTION
Paeonia x suffruticosa 'Zi Er Qiao', also known as the Purple Butterfly Tree Peony, is a deciduous shrub admired for its magnificent purple blooms and elegant foliage. The large, semi-double to double flowers, reaching up to 8-10 inches in diameter, have a rich, deep purple color and a delicate, sweet fragrance. Flowering in mid to late spring, the blooms last for several weeks. The deeply lobed, dark green leaves provide a lush, dense backdrop, enhancing the vivid color of the flowers and remaining attractive throughout the growing season. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, 'Zi Er Qiao' makes a striking focal point in borders, mixed beds, and as a specimen plant, pairing beautifully with other spring-flowering plants. Its structured growth habit and dramatic blooms are well-suited for formal gardens, and its appeal to pollinators enhances its value in wildlife-friendly gardens, promoting biodiversity.
