Notes
'Amelia Robbins' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Amelia Robbins') 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 rose blooms are fragrant, so they work well in a vase. Mr. and Mrs. John M. Lewis bred it.
Pairs well with Halcyon hosta, Blue grama, and Black Hero tulip.
