Bartzella Peony
Intersectional Itoh hybrid with huge lemon-yellow double blooms and red flares at the center. Strong stems hold up to 50 flowers per plant.
Toxic to cats
The ASPCA lists peony (Paeonia officinalis) as toxic to cats and dogs, and to horses. Eating it can cause vomiting, diarrhoea and listlessness. The ASPCA names that one species, but ours are the same genus, so give them the same caution, and keep a vase of cut stems out of a cat's reach.
