Notes

'Comtesse Marianna Delmes' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Comtesse Marianna Delmes') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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. You can cut the blooms and bring them indoors for bouquets. Kelway and Paillet both introduced it in 1889. Plant it in a border or perennial bed where you can enjoy it up close.

Pairs well with Rainbow's End hosta, Standing Ovation little bluestem, Pink Impression tulip, and Polish Spirit clematis.
