    Customer photo review of Itoh Peony Roots - Scarlet Heaven

    My second review, just want to say that it was planted in the fall and in April it gave us a beautiful first bloom. Deep color and uniquely designed center. Looks pretty during the day and closes up at night in a beautiful way too. Happy with the plant.

    Itoh Peony Roots - Scarlet Heaven

    I ordered this peony and 2 others in Fall 2023. I received the order around 11/1 and discovered that the bag for this peony didn't have a root in it. I called Eden Bros. next day and a very nice lady apologized, explained that they buy the peonies pre-packaged from another grower, and said that a replacement would be sent out. I got it within a week, and it was a beauty, big and healthy with numerous eyes, and it is now in the ground. Of course, I won't know how it does until next spring, but I think my chances are good. BTW, the other 2 peonies I got were in good shape, too.

    I was happy with my peony order. I ordered at the end of the season and the peony looks nice and healthy with two nice eyes. I can’t wait for spring!
