There’s something quietly dramatic about a tree peony that blooms in both spring and autumn — and Yi Du Chun Qiu delivers exactly that rare double season of flowers. Each bloom stretches nearly seven inches across, layered petals in soft, luminous tones that carry a light fragrance on cool Pacific Northwest mornings.
This dormant bareroot plant arrives 2–3 years old with 2–3 established branches, typically 10–25 inches tall at shipping. Come spring, expect growth to reach around three feet. Plant it in fertile, well-drained soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH, in partial shade with protection from afternoon heat. Water moderately during establishment — evenly moist, never waterlogged. Hardy in USDA zones 4–9, it handles cold beautifully; a light mulch in colder winters is all the extra care it needs.
Rockii tree peonies ship dormant and bareroot each fall (September–November), the only window that sets roots up for reliable, long-term bloom.
🍂 Shipping & planting window
Peonies ship in fall (September–November) when fully dormant and bare root.
Fall planting gives roots a full season to establish in warm soil before winter. Cold stratification triggers strong, healthy spring growth and reliable bloom production. Spring-shipped peonies experience root damage during active growth, transplant shock during their bloom cycle, and often lose an entire growing season.
