Peony Lollipop

Peony ‘Lollipop’ is a striking and playful Itoh hybrid known for its unique, semi-double blooms. Each creamy yellow flower is splashed with bold magenta streaks and brushstrokes, making no two blooms exactly alike. This artistic display blooms from late spring to early summer, bringing vibrancy and individuality to borders, mixed beds, or as a showpiece plant.

This variety boasts strong, upright stems that support its large flowers without staking, while its finely divided, deep green foliage adds texture and remains attractive throughout the season. As an Itoh hybrid, ‘Lollipop’ combines the best traits of herbaceous and tree peonies, offering abundant blooms, excellent disease resistance, and impressive longevity in the garden.

We supply the highest quality bare root peony roots with 3–5 eyes, ensuring healthy establishment and prolific flowering. For best results, plant in spring with the crown positioned 2.5–5 cm below the soil surface, and water regularly during the growing season. With time and care, ‘Lollipop’ will reward you with its unique and captivating blooms for years to come.

Newly planted peonies seldom make a first-class show in their first season, instead reaching the top of their form in their second or third year.
