Notes
'Heavenly Pink' peony (Paeonia 'Heavenly Pink') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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. Its huge, bowl-shaped, bright pink double blooms are fragrant and cover the top of the plant. Louis Smirnow introduced it in 1974. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Magnus coneflower, Wide Brim hosta, and Blue grama.
