Notes

'Goodwin' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Goodwin') 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 double flowers are crimson. Kelway bred it, so you can enjoy a classic peony in your garden or in a vase.

Pairs well with Gooseneck loosestrife, Maiden pink, and Queen of Night tulip.
