Notes
'Fiesta Posey' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Fiesta Posey') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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 semi-double blooms are near white with light pink highlights. It grows tall, so give it room at the back of the bed. William Henry Krekler bred it.
Pairs well with Black-eyed Susan, Hairy aster, and Sedge.
