Notes
'Hino-mihata' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Hino-mihata') is a shrub for borders, perennial beds, and cut flowers. 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. Its crimson blooms add bold color to the garden and look lovely in a vase. The Chugai Nursery introduced it in 1940. Plant it where you can enjoy the flowers up close.
Pairs well with Star magnolia, Annabelle hydrangea, and Toad lily.
