Notes
'Hazelden' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Hazelden') is a perennial for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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 medium dark pink and open in late spring. Its good stems hold the blooms up well, which also makes it handy for cutting.
Pairs well with Sweet William, Bells of Ireland, and Miss Kim lilac.
