Notes
'Jean Cooperman' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Jean Cooperman') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, and perennial beds. 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 a soft, even-toned crimson red and have a sweet fragrance. Archie M. Brand bred it, so you can cut a few stems to enjoy indoors.
Pairs well with Culver’s root, Dense blazing star, Sedge, and Blue Muffin arrowwood viburnum.
