Notes
'Jubilee Pink' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Jubilee Pink') 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. Roy G. Klehm bred it. The fragrant, Japanese type blooms open in early summer with two rows of deep pink guard petals around a light yellow center. Each strong stem carries two to five buds.
Pairs well with Siberian squill, Ostrich fern, Scentara Double Blue lilac, and Grape hyacinth.
