Notes

'Helene Williams' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Helene Williams') 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 blooms are light pink and make a soft show in the garden. You can cut the flowers for arrangements indoors. Pfeiffer Nursery bred it.

Pairs well with Columbine, Yarrow, and Queen of Night tulip.
