Notes

'Aorangi' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Aorangi') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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 pale pink with prominent dark flares. Derek Irvine bred it in 2001 as a seedling of 'Seidl' #12.

Pairs well with Meadowsweet, Ice plant, Queen of Night tulip, and Winterberry.
