Notes

'Giuseppina' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Giuseppina') 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. The flowers are white with lilac and rose-pink shading, and they sit above dark foliage. The habit is compact and upright. Vivaio Buffa introduced it in 2005.

Pairs well with Endless Summer hydrangea, Blue fescue, Cinnamon fern, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
