Notes
'Dulcinée' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Dulcinée') 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 double pink flowers are fragrant and open late in spring into early summer. Strong stems hold the light pink blooms upright.
Pairs well with Cinnamon fern, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Spotted dead nettle.
