Notes

'Arashi-yama' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Arashi-yama') 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 rose-pink blooms make a bold show in a mixed border. Cut a few stems for a vase when the flowers open.

Pairs well with Halcyon hosta, Greig's tulip, and Prairie dropseed.
