Notes

'Adzuma-nishiki' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Adzuma-nishiki') is a shrub for borders and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. The flowers are single, which means they have one ring of petals. Cut a few stems for a vase while the blooms are fresh.

Pairs well with Blue Angel hosta, Blue fescue, Cinnamon fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
