Notes
'Garden Parfait' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Garden Parfait') 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 double shell pink flowers have a ring of stamens that gives a gold and pink parfait look. Blooms are fragrant and open in late spring, with 2-3 buds per stem. Roy G. Klehm bred it.
Pairs well with Queen of Night tulip, Ostrich fern, and Limeglow creeping juniper.
