Notes

'Dokushin-den' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Dokushin-den') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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 light pink blooms make a soft color accent in the bed. Cut stems bring the flowers indoors.

Pairs well with Indian grass, Hicksii yew, and Carnation.
