Itoh Peony 'Itoh 'Cora Louise' is an Itoh (intersectional) peony grown for its large, showy flowers and strong, tidy habit. You can expect a sturdy clump that returns reliably each spring and looks good through the growing season.
Plant Paeonia × 'Itoh 'Cora Louise' where you can enjoy the blooms up close. The flowers are predominantly white with a contrasting violet to lavender flare at the center, and they carry a light fragrance. The plant typically reaches about 24-36 inches tall at maturity, making it easy to use as a focal point in perennial beds.
For best flowering, give it full sun, though it can also perform in part shade, especially where summers run hot. Provide rich, well-drained soil with consistent moisture during spring growth; avoid sites that stay waterlogged. Once established, it is generally low maintenance and long lived.
After flowering, leave the foliage to feed the crown for next year. Cut back stems after frost and clear old leaves from the area to keep the planting tidy. If you ever need to move or divide, do it in fall, and be patient as peonies can take time to settle and bloom strongly again.
