Notes

'Dieudonne' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Dieudonne') 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. Strong stems carry large pink and white flowers in clusters. The color holds, and the tall plant draws the eye from a distance. Dr. Frederick G. Brethour bred it.

Pairs well with Great blue lobelia, Sedge, and Grape hyacinth.
