Notes

'Baby Kelway' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Baby Kelway') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, 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 blush or light pink flowers have smooth, substantial petals in a delicate flesh tint that is nearly white. Kelway bred it.

Pairs well with Minuteman hosta, Royal fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
