Notes
'Banner Bright' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Banner Bright') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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 semi-double flowers are a brilliant medium pink and open in mid to late spring. Alonzo B. Franklin bred it, and it blooms at midseason.
Pairs well with Japanese spirea, Sedge, and Little Beauty tulip.
