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 flower size is close to half; its
flowering time is approximately one month late. 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. |
