There’s something theatrical about a tree peony that blooms dinner-plate wide — and Century Star (Shi Ji Ju Xing) delivers exactly that. Each flower stretches nearly 10 inches across in soft, layered petals that feel almost too lush to be real.
This Rockii Tree Peony arrives as a dormant bareroot plant, 2–3 years old with 2–3 established branches. Shipped in fall at 10–25 inches, it can reach around 3 feet tall by its first full spring. Plant it in partial shade with fertile, well-drained soil that leans neutral to slightly alkaline. Water moderately — evenly moist through establishment, never soggy. Hardy in USDA zones 4–9, it asks only for light mulch in colder climates and protection from winter wet.
Fall is the only window we ship, and for good reason: dormant roots settle into warm soil before winter, then wake up primed to 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.
This listing is for 50 plants at $55 per plant. A minimum of 100 LY Nursery tree peony plants is required per order. Shipping is included. Ships directly from the grower farm in China.
