Notes
'Gorbag' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Gorbag') is a perennial for borders, cut flower use, 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 white flowers have a greyed-red striated pattern and golden centers. This compact plant stands upright, so it needs no support.
Pairs well with Smooth aster, Carnaval De Nice tulip, Rock soapwort, and New Jersey tea.
