Notes
'Happy Memory' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Happy Memory') 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 huge, full double flowers have crinkled petals and a clear rose-pink color. Louis Smirnow bred it from Himegozen and Dai-kagura.
Pairs well with Lady's mantle, Sedge, and Witch hazel.
