Notes
'Choseiden' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Choseiden') is a shrub for borders, perennial beds, 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. Sakata & Co. introduced it in 1931. Its woody stems stay through winter, so you can leave them standing and prune only to shape the plant.
Pairs well with Spiderwort, Monkshood, and Stargazer lily.
