Notes
'Laurel’s Love' peony (Paeonia lactiflora 'Laurel’s Love') 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 flowers have a Japanese form with flaring orchid guards. The center looks like a cream-colored pompom. The blooms are fragrant, so they make a nice cut flower for indoors.
Pairs well with June hosta, Prairie dropseed, and Black Hero tulip.
