Notes
Aimee's Pink peony (Paeonia lactiflora Aimees Pink) is a perennial for borders, cut flower gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. The double pink blooms are fragrant, and the scent lasts for several days in the vase. Flowers open in late spring and hold their color well. Strong stems stand about 34 inches tall.
Pairs well with Columbine, Cinnamon fern, and Incrediball hydrangea.
