Notes
'Delâchei' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Delâchei') 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 flowers are double and red, so they make a bold show in the garden and in a vase.
Pairs well with Fringed bleeding heart, Blanket flower, and Sedge.
