Notes
'Go-Daigo' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Go-Daigo') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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 flowers have a Japanese type form and a light rose color. It grows up to 35 inches tall, so it fits well in the middle of a border.
Pairs well with Prairie dropseed, Spotted dead nettle, and Grape hyacinth.
