There’s something quietly theatrical about a peony that earns the name Eclipse — and one look at those blush-pink blooms, up to 6.3 inches across, and you’ll understand why.
Eclipse (Hong Fen Jia Ren) is a Rockii tree peony — a centuries-old Chinese garden lineage prized for extraordinary cold hardiness and flowers with that signature dark flare at the petal base. This deciduous woody shrub thrives in partial shade with moderate, even moisture during establishment; never let roots sit in waterlogged soil. It prefers fertile, well-drained ground that leans neutral to slightly alkaline. Hardy through USDA zones 4–9, it handles Pacific Northwest winters beautifully — just mulch lightly in colder microclimates.
Your plant ships as a dormant bareroot, 2–3 years old with 2–3 branches, 10–25 inches tall. Expect roughly 3 feet of growth by its first spring. Fall planting — our only ship window — gives roots a quiet head start before the season turns.

🍂 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.
