Notes
'Diana' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Diana') is a perennial for borders, cut flower gardens, 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 large, double blooms open in late spring to early summer on tall stems. A Japanese breeder created it.
Pairs well with Cheerfulness daffodil, Sedge, and Arizona Sun blanket flower.
