Paeonia obovata "alba" (a
yet-described form) is a white form of Paeonia obovata inhabiting
forest beds in mountainous regions. It resembles another species,
Paeonia japonica, but the flowers are approximately half the size of
P. japonica; its flowering time is approximately one month later. In
general, casual observers prefer white forms rather than colored
originals; however, as far as P. obovate is concerned, they
appreciate the red-purple originals much more, which are much more
beautiful and significant. Bloom time: May. |
