Unpack bare roots or rhizomes on arrival and plant them within a week. Until then, keep them somewhere cool and ensure the roots remain slightly moist, never wet.
The recently introduced Peony 'All That Jazz' has some of the most unusual blooms we have seen! A deciduous shrub, it has attractive, deeply-divided leaves. But the real stars are its fragrant, semi-double to double flowers, that are a creamy-apricot, flecked and streaked with red. Each bloom has a central flare of a gorgeous deeper burgundy colour, too. It flowers over a long period, and the blooms are large at around 20cm across. Staking is not necessary and Peony 'All That Jazz' grows up to around 80cm in height, with a similar spread. It is not unusual for an established plant to carry as many as 50 stunning blooms in the height of the season.
Paeonia 'All That Jazz' is an Itoh hybrid peony, and rarely seen for sale. It enjoys the best of both herbaceous peonies and tree peonies! It has strong, sturdy stems, just like tree peonies, but it goes dormant in winter, just like herbaceous peonies. Plant Peony 'All That Jazz', and reap its rewards for many, many years!

Remove the packaging straight away, check the compost and water thoroughly if dry. Check the plant’s hardiness before placing it outdoors. Plant into a border or permanent container within a month, choosing the position recommended for the variety. Keep the top of the root ball level with the surrounding soil, firm gently and water well.
Soak the roots in water for three to six hours immediately before planting. Keep any crown, buds or emerging shoots above the water where possible.
Pot most bare roots into 15–20cm pots filled with peat-free multipurpose compost. Large or depth-sensitive roots, including peonies, are often best planted directly into borders.
Arrange the roots naturally without bending them. Cover the roots completely, positioning the crown and buds at the depth recommended for that particular perennial.
Keep pots in a sheltered outdoor position and water whenever the compost begins to dry. Grow on until roots hold the compost together when lifted from the pot.
Plant into a suitable border or permanent container once well rooted. Add a label and water regularly throughout the first growing season while the perennial establishes.
