Description
Yankee Doodle Dandy is a dark pink semi-double which as the flower matures, presents cream undertones. Yankee comes in mid-season and stands on a strong bush. Itohs have a larger range of colours, longer flowering periods and present a bushier more floriferous plant. They carry foliage similar to that of the Tree Peony however die back to ground level just as their herbaceous cousins. Itoh’s are more likely to flower much better in warmer and more temperate climates. They also have a higher tolerance to disease.
