Notes
'Harry F. Little' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Harry F. Little') 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 large, rose type blooms are white with a hint of flesh tint. Its stems are strong, so they hold the heavy flowers well. It blooms from late spring to early summer.
Pairs well with Culver’s root, Stargazer lily, Switchgrass, and Garlic chives.
