Notes

'Karine Duval' peony (Paeonia 'Karine Duval') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. The fragrant semi-double pink flowers reach 7 inches across and have a full white center. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers.

Pairs well with PowWow White coneflower, Dancing Queen hosta, and Little bluestem.
