Itoh Peonies ( Intersectional Hybrids ) result from the crossing of different peony sections, such as garden types with tree peony types. This successful breeding forms hybrids with the benefits of both parents, i.e. hardiness and herbacous habit from garden variety and intense new colors and flower size from tree peony varieties.
