What kinds of peony flowers are there?

According to the grade of petals.

Traditionally, the varieties of peony flowers are divided into single petals, double petals and thousand petals. There are six flower types: sunflower, lotus, rose, hemisphere, crown and hydrangea. From 20 10 to 20 10, there must be innovation if there is tradition. Through the continuous exploration of scientific researchers, a new classification method has been sorted out, and peony flowers are divided into single petal, lotus flower, chrysanthemum flower, rose, thousand-layer pavilion, laurel, gold ring, crown, hydrangea and pavilion.

According to the shape of petals

Variety daquan

Petals in 2-3 rounds, 10- 15, broad and flat, with 200-300 stamens and 4-6 pistils, with normal development of both pistils and stamens and strong fruiting ability. This kind of flowers are represented by opium purple, pomegranate red and Fontainebleau.

Single valve type

Petals have 4-5 rounds and 20-25 petals. Petals are wide, similar in shape and size, clearly arranged, pistil develops normally and has strong seed-bearing ability, but some varieties occasionally have stamens or pistil stigma petals. This flower pattern is represented by "lotus-shaped lotus", "Jinyun red" and "jade half white".

Lotus type

The outer petals are 2-5 rounds, wide and flat, and most or all of the stamens are broken into fine wrinkled petals, delicate and high, like a crown. The inner petals are irregularly arranged, and normal stamens or staminodes are often mixed between petals, and anthers are often left between petals; Pistil degenerated or valved, occasionally fruity. This flower pattern is represented by lantian jade, Honghu, Yao Huang and Shouhong.

Crown type

Stamens are fully petalled, and the inner and outer petals are similar in shape and size, crowded and convex, and spherical; The pistil is basically or completely degenerated or valved, and there is no fruiting ability. This flower pattern is represented by "bean green", "green fragrant ball" and "snow reflecting the morning glow".

Hydrangea type

Petals more than 6 rounds. Petals are similar in shape, orderly arranged and distinct in layers, gradually becoming smaller from outside to inside, with occasional petalization, with 5-1/kloc-0 pistils, which grow normally or degenerate into smaller ones. Some varieties have petal-shaped stigma and poor knot strength. This flower pattern is represented by "Rose Red", "Laughter in the Cluster", "Silver Red Clever Pair" and "Golden Red".

Chrysanthemum type

Petals are round, petals gradually become smaller from outside to inside, stamens become normal petals, pistils degenerate into smaller or smaller petals, and the knot strength is poor. This flower pattern is represented by "Zi Er Qiao", "Black Jin Rong" and "Red Clouds Win Glory".

Rose type

The outer petals have 2-3 whorls, wide and flat. The central stamen of the flower becomes a long and narrow vertical petal, and a circle of normal stamens between the central petal and the outer petal forms a gold ring. The pistil is normal or slightly petal-shaped, with poor knot strength. There are few such flowers, such as "daytime moth", "handsome red", "pink peach blossom" and "jade beauty".

Gold ring type

The lateral petals have 2-5 rounds, which are wide and tidy, and some stamen petals become slender petals. There are often anthers or anther traces at the ends of petals, and normal stamens are mixed between petals, which are irregular and sparse, and the pistil is normal or slightly petaloid, so it is strong. This flower pattern is represented by Shu women's clothes, fairy moths and trilateral flowers.

Tuogui type

The stamens of the lower flowers are completely petaled, similar to normal petals, and the pistils are petaled into normal petals or colored petals; The petals of the upper flowers are slightly larger and less, and the stamens are basically petalized or degenerated; The pistil becomes normal petals or colored petals, and some varieties degenerate and disappear. This flower pattern is represented by varieties such as "Chilong Huancai", "Shengdan Furnace", "Louyu Diancui" and "Purple Paris".

Louzitai lattice type

The following petals have more than 4 rounds, the petals are arranged neatly and similar in shape, and there are no stamens or staminodes between petals. Stamens are normal and few, or occasionally valved, and pistil degenerates into smaller or valved; The upper petals are few, spreading or erect, the stamens are less and less, and the pistil degenerates into smaller or petal-shaped. This flower pattern is represented by "Ling Hua Zhan Lu", "Fat Red" and "Shouxing Red".
