Notes
'Lady Algernon Lennox' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Lady Algernon Lennox') 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 pink flowers have a yellow center, so they add a soft look to a sunny bed. Cut the blooms for a vase and enjoy them indoors. Kelway bred it.
Pairs well with Dancing Queen hosta, Indian grass, and Grape hyacinth.
