Notes

'Emile Fresart' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Emile Fresart') 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. Lemoine bred it in 1892. Plant it where it has room to grow into a woody, long-lived shrub.

Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Black chokeberry, and Sedge.
