Notes
'Kaiser Leopold' tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa 'Kaiser Leopold') 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. The blooms are white with purple at the petal bases. Jacob Rinz bred it, and the flowers make a bold show in a sunny bed.
Pairs well with Magnus coneflower, Praying Hands hosta, Switchgrass, and Stargazer lily.
