Notes
'Carol Lohry Cartwright' peony (Paeonia 'Carol Lohry Cartwright') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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. Its fragrant hot pink flowers fade to light pink in full sun. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. The upright plants need no support.
Pairs well with Golden Tiara hosta, Charles Joly lilac, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
