Notes
'Horatiana' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Horatiana') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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. The flowers are white with lilac shading and violet flares, so they suit a mixed border. You can also cut the blooms to bring indoors. Charles His bred it.
Pairs well with New England aster, Cinnamon fern, Carnaval De Nice tulip, and Polish Spirit clematis.
