Paeonia 'Hai Huang', also marketed under the name 'High Noon', is a variety of vigorous and floriferous shrub peony with late but exceptionally fragrant flowers. It is a hybrid of beautiful stature with particularly elegant foliage, finely cut and dark green. Its Chinese ancestor, Paeonia lutea, has passed on to its flowers with crumpled petals its tender yellow colour. Medium-sized and semi-double, the flowers are maculated with red at the centre, abundantly produced in late spring or early summer. Hardy and easy to grow in any good garden soil, this variety will live for many years without requiring much care, after careful planting. A very peony plant needs no description, it is simply appreciated, either in isolation or at the forefront of a shrub bed.
Peony 'Hai Huang' was introduced to the USA in 1952. It carries the genes of Paeonia delavayi var. lutea, endemic to the undergrowth of southwest China, less demanding than other tree peonies but also slightly less hardy. Its other parent is P. suffruticosa. Unlike herbaceous peonies that disappear from the surface of the ground in winter, tree peonies have one or more small woody branches that persist throughout the seasons, like shrubs. All these plants native to the Far East are very cold-resistant. They belong to the family of Ranunculaceae.
'Hai Huang' received the Gold Medal from the American Peony Society in 1989. This variety forms quite slowly, a sparsely branched shrub, with solid, short, knotty and upright brownish-coloured stems. It has a rounded habit and reaches about 1.40 m (5ft) to 1.50 m (5ft) in all directions. The short and upright branches bear deciduous leaves, which emerge in spring and fall in autumn. They are divided into long lanceolate leaflets, incised on the edges, very smooth, strongly veined, reddish when buds burst open, quickly becoming dark green on top, bluish green underneath. The autumn colours are often very beautiful before the leaves fall.
The flowering of this 'Hai Huang' variety takes place for 3-4 weeks in May-June, it is one of the last tree peonies to bloom in the garden. Sometimes there is a slight re-blooming during the summer, depending on the climate. A 3-year-old plant will produce a single flower in the first year, but 50 after 20 years of cultivation. It starts with very large solitary rounded buds that appear at the end of winter at the tips of new shoots. They open into semi-double corollas, held above the foliage, measuring 12 to 14 cm (5 to 6in) in diameter. They are composed of slightly crumpled petals, a very light lemon yellow, with the red base more or less visible. The heart of the flower, raspberry-coloured, is occupied by golden yellow stamens, clearly visible. Its magnificent fragrance reminiscent of lilies reveals citrus notes.
The tree peony is not a plant for impatient gardeners. It takes its time, but years of patience are rewarded by the fabulous spectacle created by this opulent shrub laden with huge flowers in spring. In the garden, the 'Lu Mu Ying Yu' tree peony will be sumptuous when planted against a wall, at the forefront of a hedge or in a border, under tall trees, but always sheltered from winds and in a bright and airy location. Its magnificent flowers will be enhanced by those of other white, pink, or mauve peonies, clusters of mauve or white lilacs, or early-flowering China roses (Old Blush). This variety also pairs well with other perennials that bloom before or after it, such as garden irises or campanulas.

Botanical data
Place the Hai Huang Peony in partial shade, 6 hours of sun per day are necessary to obtain a beautiful flowering. Morning sun is appreciated, while scorching situations should be avoided. From September to May, except during freezing periods, plant it in a fertile and deep soil, slightly acidic, neutral or even slightly calcareous, moist but well-drained to prevent the roots from rotting. Once well established in deep soil, the tree peony does not require watering in summer in all our regions, especially early spring-blooming varieties. Its cold resistance is excellent, but the flower buds can be damaged by strong or dry and cold winds.
Easy to grow, shrubby peonies require little maintenance but deserve careful planting. During planting, dig a large hole 40 to 50 cm (16 to 20in) deep and at least as wide. Fill it with a mixture of garden soil, leaf compost, and river sand or gravel if your soil is very heavy and compact. Add crushed horn, bone meal, and dried blood in the bottom of the planting hole. Do not plant the plants too close together for good aeration. The shrubby peony fears competition from the roots of other plants, so allow for a spacing of 1 m (3ft) with its neighbors. The graft should be buried about twenty centimeters deep so that the plant gradually becomes independent of its rootstock. Watering should be abundant but spaced 8 to 5 days apart in the first two years, from March to September. Peonies have a reputation for being homebodies. That's why they should not be moved after planting. Avoid pruning unless the base of the plant becomes bare. If that's the case, prune at the level of the shoots from the base. Provide a support stake to support the flower stems and remove faded flowers during the season.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
