Notes
'La Voluptueuse' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'La Voluptueuse') 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. It bears pink blooms that look lovely in a vase when you cut them for bouquets. Pair it with other plants in a border to bring soft color to the bed. Modeste Guérin bred it.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Blanket flower, and Standing Ovation little bluestem.
