Notes
'Daphne Borrie' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Daphne Borrie') is a shrub for borders 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. The semi-double flowers are cream with a rose overlay and open late in the tree peony season. Large green leaves have a bronze tint. McFarlane bred it, and it can reach about 79 inches tall.
Pairs well with Rose, Sedge, and Black Parrot tulip.
