Notes

'Catherine S. Fox' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Catherine S. Fox') 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 single flowers are rose-pink and yellow. E. J. Berneche bred it, and the blooms make good cut flowers for a vase.

Pairs well with Smooth aster, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Rock soapwort.
