Notes
'Hadlow Mist' peony (Paeonia 'Hadlow Mist') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, specimen planting, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It blooms in early to late spring with cream flowers shaded deep pink and edged in salmon-pink. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Derek Irvine bred it.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Christmas fern, Pink Impression tulip, and Nelly Moser clematis.
