Notes
'Emma Klehm' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Emma Klehm') is a perennial that brings deep pink flowers to the garden. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). The flowers open in late spring and early summer, so plan for color at that time. This plant grows 24 to 28 inches tall and belongs to the Paeoniaceae family. Carl G. Klehm bred it.
Pairs well with Francee hosta, Royal fern, and Snowdrop.
