Notes
'Elaine Pfeiffer' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Elaine Pfeiffer') 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 flowers are light pink. The plants grow tall, so place them toward the back of a border. Pfeiffer Nursery bred it.
Pairs well with Minuteman hosta, Black-eyed Susan, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Carlton daffodil.
