Two Unique & Wonderful<br />
Characteristics <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Intersectional Hybrid Group<br />
• Flower Color Variations<br />
• Many hybrids undergo remarkable &<br />
beautiful color transformations as the flowers<br />
mature (over 1-4 days)<br />
• Unique Sidebud Flower Characteristics<br />
• Sidebud flowers are unexpected surprise<br />
Result: Two flower forms & two flower colors on the<br />
same plant , <strong>of</strong>ten at the same time<br />

Unexpected & Little Known<br />
Characteristics <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Intersectional Hybrid Group<br />
Multiple flowers per stem are characteristic <strong>of</strong> the<br />
intersectional hybrid group<br />
Unique characteristics <strong>of</strong> intersectional sidebud flowers<br />
• Majority <strong>of</strong> hybrids have many excellent quality sidebuds<br />
~ 82% <strong>of</strong> hybrids have sidebuds<br />
– Mostly 1-3 sidebuds per stem<br />
• Sidebud flowers <strong>of</strong>ten as large as main bud flowers<br />
• Sidebud flowers extend out beyond main bud flowers<br />
• Sidebud flowers <strong>of</strong>ten more double than main bud flowers<br />
• Result: Floriferous blooming with extended period <strong>of</strong> bloom<br />

Martha W. (Spangler, 1986)<br />
as a seed parent<br />
Why it’s an ideal parent<br />
• Extremely fertile (<strong>to</strong> most hybrid tree peony pollens)<br />
• Excellent stigma (very easy <strong>to</strong> work with)<br />
• Makes big pods <strong>and</strong> seeds (although high percentage <strong>of</strong> ruptured seeds)<br />
• Mostly infertile <strong>to</strong> self pollen (contamination rate very low)<br />
• Fertile both ways (produces seeds on most fertile tree peonies)<br />
• Blooms early (important fac<strong>to</strong>r for reverse cross)<br />
• Produces a high percentage <strong>of</strong> excellent <strong>of</strong>fspring<br />
• Gives high percentage <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fspring with semi-double - double flowers<br />
- Flower form appears <strong>to</strong> be dictated by the other parent (i.e., tree peony parent)<br />
• Gives low percentage <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fspring with inferior flowers<br />
• Foliage <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fspring is almost universally excellent<br />
• Pink flower color (red <strong>and</strong> white pigments) gives wide range <strong>of</strong> colors in <strong>of</strong>fspring<br />
• Desirable characteristics generally passed on <strong>to</strong> the progeny<br />
- Healthy, disease resistant foliage<br />
-Strong stems<br />
- Multiple flowers per stem (deep branching with 3-4 side buds is common)<br />
- Large, strong, side buds with excellent quality flowers<br />
