Notes

'Coral Isle' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Coral Isle') 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 semi-double blooms open coral-pink in late spring. Few peonies match its true coral color, so it adds a bold splash to the garden.

Pairs well with Smooth hydrangea, Bells of Ireland, Cinnamon fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
