Notes

'Dayglow Rose' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Dayglow Rose') 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. Roy G. Klehm bred it. The large cerise-rose blooms are Japanese type flowers with stamens, and strong stems hold them up on compact plants about 20 inches tall.

Pairs well with Orange lily, Scentara Double Blue lilac, and Blue sage.
