The tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa) is a long-lived woody shrub famous for its huge, dinner-plate blooms in late spring. This pink-flowered form brings that same drama with soft pink petals on a sturdy, branching framework. It is a legacy plant for borders and specimen spots — slow from seed, but it can live and bloom for decades.
Why choose our seeds?
- Large pink blooms up to 6 inches across in late spring
- Woody shrub that gives the garden year-round structure
- Extremely long-lived once established
How to grow Pink Chojuraku Tree Peony Flower seeds
Choose Your Planting Method
- Indoors: Start indoors with a full warm-then-cold stratification cycle (about 3 months each).
- Outdoors: Easiest method: sow outdoors in autumn in a deep pot and let winter provide the chilling naturally.
Prepare Your Materials
- Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
- Well-draining potting mix
- Deep pots (at least 6 inches deep) for the long taproot
- Spray bottle for misting
Sowing the Seeds
- Soak seeds for 24 hours, then sow 3/8 inch (1 cm) deep in moist mix.
- Give seeds about 90 days of warmth (68-77°F / 20-25°C) followed by 90 days of cold (35-41°F / 2-5°C).
Provide the Right Conditions
- Light: Partial shade for germination and young seedlings.
- Temperature: Warm stage 68-77°F (20-25°C); cold stage 35-41°F (2-5°C).
Germination
- The root emerges during the warm stage; shoots appear after the cold stage — allow 5-6 months or longer.
- Never let the pot dry out or overheat during the long wait.
Transplanting
- Grow seedlings in their pots for about 2 years before planting out.
- Move to the permanent spot in autumn or early spring.
- Space 3-4 feet apart in well-drained, neutral to slightly alkaline soil.
Care Tips
- Sun: Full sun to partial shade.
- Water: Water regularly in dry spells; avoid waterlogged soil.
- Fertilizer: Feed lightly in spring with a low-nitrogen fertilizer.
- Shelter from harsh winds — the woody stems can be brittle.
Bloom Time:
Late spring; seedlings typically need several years of growth before their first bloom.
