Notes

'Dainty Lass' peony (Paeonia 'Dainty Lass') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. The coral-pink Japanese type blooms early, with two rows of petals around a stamen center. Lyman D. Glasscock bred it.

Pairs well with Woolly yarrow, Lilac, Prairie dropseed, and Picture tulip.
