Notes

'Coquette' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Coquette') 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. Its flowers are double and white, so they fill a bouquet with soft color. Plant it where the blooms can stand out in a border. Victor Lemoine & Sons bred it.

Pairs well with Lady's mantle, Prairie dropseed, and Black Hero tulip.
