Itoh peony

I've got this peony as a gift...well, I got a "cheque cadeau" and I chose this beauty and an arch for the garden.
It is now in its fourth year and positioned in a rather dry sandy spot near the driveway of the house, but I've found it to be so carefree.
Itoh peonies are herbaceous, so they die back to the ground every year, but their foliage looks similar to a tree peony and the flowers are similar to those of tree peonies, too.
They stay in bloom for about a month because the flowers last for a long time and because there are several flowers on the same stem that are in various stages of development.
What's not to love about it?

Pictures time

I'm back with some images, so I won't bother with too many words today.

Some tomato flower buds

Leo does not let me down and it's the first with flower buds among the new rose additions

Pretty Susie looks quite pink in bud, but it turns into the most immaculate white flower

My lilac is pure poetry

Purple profusion

And my Itoh peony seems so delicate and looks like a painting
