Notes

'Ghislaine Brosseau' peony (Paeonia 'Ghislaine Brosseau') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Its fragrant pink flowers are single, with rounded, notched petals and a tidy center of stamens. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Curly Fries hosta, Little bluestem, Charles Joly lilac, and Goldsturm black-eyed Susan.
